"Al-Nasr" football club head coach Jorge Jesus explained why Cristiano Ronaldo will not take the field in the next match. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

This was reported by euro-football.ru. It is known that the Riyadh club will play against the "Arkadag" team on Wednesday within the framework of the AFC Champions League.

Although Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to return to the field soon, he will not participate in this match. According to coach Jorge Jesus, due to the team's very tight schedule, it was decided to give rest to Ronaldo and other key players.

"We have an important match against Al-Fateh ahead," said Jesus. This statement was published by Al Nassr Zone.

Additionally, the coach emphasized that resting Ronaldo is a usual practice. He has previously missed several matches played outside Saudi Arabia.

The match between "Al-Fateh" and "Al-Nasr" within the Saudi championship is scheduled to take place on Saturday, February 14.
