The star was seen recently in Dubai, winning recognition at the Globe Soccer Awards. But according to a fresh training video by Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo was not training with the group. However, the captain was seen in the video during the initial warm-up and later while exiting. On a positive note, it looks like the calf muscle under question is not as severe as thought to be.
It is worth mentioning that Ronaldo was initially supposed to train alone for at least a few weeks. His previous training with the team saw him suffering from pain, which led him to a private recovery session at the club’s clinic. But now, according to reports, the player is already in China and expected to start training soon. Moreover, the former Real Madrid striker appears to recover in time for the much-anticipated Riyadh Season Cup.
