The truth behind the rumor of Ronaldo 'fleeing' from Arabia to avoid danger

At present, the question of where Cristiano Ronaldo is located continues to intrigue many, with a Saudi Arabian source stepping forward to shed light on the issue.

The swirling information regarding Cristiano Ronaldo's departure from Saudi Arabia has inevitably caused public unease.

Several newspapers such as The Sun, Daily Mail and Goal reported that Ronaldo's private jet, valued at £61 million, flew from Riyadh to Madrid. These articles emerged amid heightened regional tensions in the Middle East due to conflict between the US and Iran.

However, according to Press Association, Ronaldo is still in Saudi Arabia. A local source cited by Al Riyadiyah also confirmed that the Portuguese superstar has not left the country. Although his aircraft was confirmed to have moved to Europe, there is currently no official information indicating Ronaldo or his family were on that flight.

Furthermore, Al Nassr's official website also implicitly confirmed that Ronaldo has not left the Middle East, by posting images of CR7 and his teammates in training sessions preparing for their Saudi Pro League Round 25 match against Neom.

Despite the doubts about whether Ronaldo is still in Saudi Arabia, one thing is certain: the Portuguese superstar will not feature in Al Nassr's AFC Champions League Two match. The reason is that the Asian Football Confederation has postponed several matches in the region, including Al Nassr's AFC quarter-final against Al Wasl, to avoid unnecessary risks for players and fans of both teams.

According to the current schedule, this week's Saudi Pro League matches are proceeding as normal. Al Nassr is scheduled to host Neom in Riyadh on Saturday. If he indeed has not left the Middle East as per earlier information, the likelihood of CR7 playing is low, as he is recovering after suffering an injury in the victory over Al Feiha.
