Luis Castro, the head coach of Al Nassr, has stated that Cristiano Ronaldo will be unable to participate in their friendly match against Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami due to a calf injury.
Castro confirmed this information during a conversation with reporters on Wednesday, revealing that Ronaldo has not yet fully recuperated.
“Cristiano is in the final part of his recovery to join the group.Fn
“We expect that he can begin to work with the team in the next few days. He will be an element that will be absent from the game,” he said.
The highly anticipated game will take place at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh.
This fixture was anticipated as the ultimate club meeting between Messi and Ronaldo, two exceptional footballers who extensively influenced European football for ten years, particularly during their overlapping tenures at Real Madrid and Barcelona.
