Off the Pitch
Ronaldo prepares for Al-Nassr’s Saudi League return
Cristiano Ronaldo is gearing up for Al-Nassr’s return to Saudi Pro League action after last week’s 3–2 defeat to Al-Ahli.
Al-Nassr remain top of the table on 31 points, but Friday’s loss, in which Ivan Toney scored twice, brought a rare setback. Cristiano Ronaldo shared training photos on social media on Tuesday, captioned “Focused and ready,” as the team prepares to host Al Qadsiah on Thursday evening.
The match also serves as a warm-up for a bigger test ahead, with the Riyadh derby against Al Hilal scheduled for January 12. With Cristiano Ronaldo back in training and sharpening up, attention now turns to how Al-Nassr responds on the pitch.
