Cristiano Ronaldo is injured. This was announced by his club Al-Nassr, which is currently in training camp in China. The Portuguese is struggling with muscular problems. The two friendly matches against Shanghai Shenhua and Zheijang that were scheduled to take place this week have been canceled because CR7 cannot be presented to fans and spectators.

Apparently Ronaldo could be out for several weeks, which would also affect the eagerly awaited test match against Lionel Messi and Inter Miami scheduled for February 1st.
Ronaldo shared: “In football there are things that are out of your control. I’ve been playing professional football for 22 years and I’m actually not a player who has a lot of injuries. That’s why I’m sad because Al-Nassr and I are came here to China to enjoy the preparation. I’m sad and I know you’re sad too, especially those who love Cristiano. But we have to look at it positively: the games are not canceled, we want to go through with them and that’s why come back.”
He added: “Unfortunately I have problems, but that’s part of football. We’ll come back here and make all the Chinese people happy. That’s my goal anyway. I want to play for you.”
For Al-Nassr the duel is at the Riyadh Season Cup with Messi and Inter Miami on February 1st on the program before facing league rivals Al-Hilal in the same competition a week later. The first competitive game is on February 14th in the AFC Champions League against Al Feiha.
