Al-Nassr manager did not include Ronaldo in his squad to face Al-Ittihad
Al-Nassr manager, Jorge Jesus, has not included Cristiano Ronaldo in his squad to face Al-Ittihad in a Saudi Pro League on Friday.
This will be the second consecutive fixture the 41-year-old will miss.
Ronaldo is carrying out a personal protest against the Public Investment Fund (PIF).
PIF is Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund that owns the top clubs in the country.
And although the five-time Ballon d’Or winner returned to training this week, he has now been named in the squad for the match.
Ronaldo believes Al Nassr are not being backed financially as much as their title rivals Al Hilal.
