Cristiano Ronaldo has been ruled out with a hamstring injury following Al‑Nassr’s 3–1 win over Al-Fayha. The club confirmed the 41‑year-old star has started his rehabilitation and will be assessed daily before returning to training.
Earlier today, rumours went viral that Ronaldo and his family had fled Saudi Arabia on his private jet amid the escalating Iran–US–Israel conflict, which saw Iranian missiles reportedly targeting neighbouring countries, including Saudi Arabia. Many fans shared the story online, fuelling panic about the superstar’s safety.
Al‑Nassr and credible sources such as football journalist Fabrizio Romano have now debunked the claims. Ronaldo remains in Riyadh, focusing on recovery, with no record of him leaving the country. The supposed jet departure was false, and the star continues to receive treatment at the club’s facilities.

The injury is a setback for Al‑Nassr, who rely on Ronaldo’s goals as they push for honours this season. His absence from training and upcoming matches is purely fitness‑related, the club stated.
Despite regional tensions affecting some sporting events in the Middle East, Ronaldo’s situation is not linked to the conflict. Fans and pundits will be watching closely for updates on his return to the pitch.
Al‑Nassr have assured supporters that player safety remains a priority, and Ronaldo’s progress will be monitored day by day, with the hope of a full recovery soon.
