Will Cristiano Ronaldo Come to India? Latest Al-Nassr Update Issued
Cristiano Ronaldo’s club, Al-Nassr are sent to visit India during their AFC Champions League Two game. They are set to play FC Goa next month at Fatorda Stadium. However, the key question still remains if Cristiano Ronaldo will be coming to India for the fixture or not.
The 40-year-old football legend continues to score goals right, left, and center for the Saudi Arabian club. He is on track to reach 1000 international goals and will also be playing the FIFA World Cup 2026. However, to achieve that feat, he needs to stay fit. In the 2024-25 season, he played only one game away in the AFC tournament, which has now raised serious questions about his availability for the India trip.
Even though Ronaldo has been registered for the tournament along with Sadio Mané, Kingsley Coman, João Félix, and Marcelo Brozović. While the others are almost sure to be visiting India to face FC Goa, Ronaldo’s involvement stays in doubt.
Cristiano Ronaldo to skip India visit? FC Goa vs Al Nassr Expectations
It has been well reported that Cristiano Ronaldo will only be playing 75% games for his club this season. The manager has also agreed to manage his workload accordingly. Next year’s world cup is absolutely non-negotiable for the Portuguese legend and he will not leave a stone unturned to ensure his participation.
Jorge Jesus has also taken the role of personally managing his workload, ensuring Ronaldo remains fit for both his club and international commitments. Hence, this means that Ronaldo fans are set to be disappointed, but they will definitely see him in the game when FC Goa face Al Nassr away.
Tickets for the Al-Nassr vs. FC Goa clash have already gone on sale. However, the prices indicate that fans are in for a great game. Even if Ronaldo doesn’t make the trip to India, there will be more stars on offer in the thrilling encounter.
It will be a surprise if Ronaldo plays for Al Nassr much this season, as his core focus remains playing the FIFA World Cup 2026 and achieving the league title. He has been actively playing in the World Cup qualifiers and also scoring goals. When he will reach 1000 goals is just a matter of when, instead of if.
