Cristiano Ronaldo is 'ready to go' as Al-Nassr star posts sharp training photos ahead of new Saudi Pro League season

The 39-year-old superstar is back to the grind after enjoying a well-deserved summer break following Portugal's exit from Euro 2024. The international campaign was far from Ronaldo's best as the tournament saw him struggle to find the back of the net, a stark contrast to his usual prolific standards.

Despite the criticism for his dismal showing in the Euro 2024, Ronaldo's return to Al-Nassr has been met with excitement and optimism. He was nothing short of sensational in the previous campaign, scoring an astounding 50 goals in 51 appearances and is now gearing up to fire on all cylinders when the 2024-25 season kicks off later this month.

Ronaldo shared a carousel of photos from training and wrote on Instagram: "Ready to go!"

As Al-Nassr prepares for the new season, Ronaldo's presence is more crucial than ever. The team's first test comes on August 14, when they face Al-Taawoun in the semi-finals of the Saudi Super Cup. This match is seen as a critical opportunity for Ronaldo to make an early statement of intent. Following this, Al-Nassr will kick off their Saudi Pro League campaign against Al-Raed on August 22.
