There have been concerns about the condition of superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, suggesting that he may not be able to take the field in the friendly match between Al Nassr and Inter Miami scheduled for the near future.

According to the schedule, Al Nassr FC had two friendly matches lined up against two Chinese clubs, Shanghai Shenhua and Zhejiang, on January 24th and January 28th. Chinese fans were also gearing up for a grand welcome for Cristiano Ronaldo and had plans to support the football star during these matches. However, both of these aforementioned friendly matches had to be canceled.

According to an explanation from Al Nassr FC, superstar Ronaldo suffered a calf injury, preventing him from taking the field. Faced with the frustration of Chinese fans, Ronaldo personally issued an apology to ease the situation and avoid potential boycotts in the future.

Ronaldo stated, ‘I really wanted to play. However, I sincerely apologize to the Chinese fans for not being able to participate due to the injury. Please don’t be sad and disappointed. As you know, in football, there are things you cannot control. In my 22-year career, I haven’t faced many injuries. So, I’m very saddened because this time, both Al Nassr and I came here to enjoy the tour.’

Furthermore, fans are concerned that the calf injury may also lead Ronaldo to miss the friendly match between Al Nassr and Inter Miami. This friendly tournament, organized in Saudi Arabia, features two Saudi clubs, Al Nassr and Al Hilal, and the American team Inter Miami. The Al Nassr vs. Inter Miami match is scheduled to take place at Kingdom Arena

Fortunately, the situation is progressing well, and in a message posted on Instagram, Ronaldo indicates a high likelihood of his participation in the upcoming match. CR7 shared a waving photo with fans along with the caption: ‘See you soon.’ This seems like an implicit message he is sending to the football enthusiasts, suggesting that Ronaldo is likely to make a comeback in the match against Messi and Inter Miami.
