Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo will likely still be able to play in the upcoming match with Lionel Messi.

Cristiano Ronaldo suffered a muscle strain during an Al Nassr training session in mid-month. This caused the 38-year-old superstar to have to practice separately and not be able to participate in the friendly tournament held in China not long ago.

Information appeared that Ronaldo could not recover in time to attend Messi’s match with Inter Miami on February 2. However, it is likely that CR7 will still be able to return in time.

Ronaldo is said to have recovered from his injury and can return in the match against Messi’s Inter Miami

According to journalist Ali Alabdallh, Ronaldo has recovered and is ready to reunite with Messi.

“The latest test confirms that Ronaldo has recovered from his injury and has started practicing with the ball again since January 28. He will be ready to return in the match against Inter Miami,” Ali Alabdallh said.

At the end of the trip to China, Ronaldo and his teammates at Al Nassr returned to Saudi Arabia on January 26. Georgina’s girlfriend traveled to the Maldives and celebrated her 30th birthday here. However, Ronaldo did not participate and stayed to practice.

Messi’s Inter Miami is also present in Saudi Arabia. On January 30, the American team will face Al Hilal. Three days later, Inter Miami faced Al Nassr. Not long ago, Inter Miami added striker Luis Suarez. However, in terms of squad depth, Inter Miami cannot compare with Al Nassr.

Over the past year, Al Nassr has spent money to bring in a series of stars. Besides Ronaldo, the club also brought home the 2022 Silver Ball Sadio Mane, Spanish international Aymeric Laporte, and midfielder Marcelo Brozovic.

During their careers, Messi and Ronaldo met a total of 36 matches. Messi dominated with 16 victories, Ronaldo enjoyed joy 11 times. The remaining 9 draws. When Ronaldo and Messi are no longer playing football in Europe, the possibility of both competing against each other is very low. The upcoming competition is described as the “final match” of this duo.

The match between Inter Miami and Al Nassr will take place on February 2
