Despite his trip to Paris and attendance to the Esports World Cup, Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly expected to feature in Al Nassr's next SPL game on Tuesday. Cristiano Ronaldo made a high-profile appearance in Paris alongside several world leaders and sports executives for a marquee event at the Esports World Cup, briefly casting doubt over his availability for Al Nassr‘s upcoming fixture. However, reports indicate the Portuguese superstar will be back in uniform for the club’s next Saudi Pro League clash against Al Ettifaq. Ronaldo arrived in Paris on Sunday, August 23, to attend the grand finale of the 2026 Esports World Cup. The high-profile gathering featured key political and sporting dignitaries, including FIFA president Gianni Infantino and Prince Abdulaziz bin Turki Al-Faisal, the Saudi Arabian Minister of Sport. During the event, he also met with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and French President Emmanuel Macron. The quick turn in Paris was part of a pre-arranged schedule stemming from Ronaldo’s role as a Global Ambassador for the Esports World Cup. The forward participated in the closing ceremonies, bringing out the trophy and placing it on the main stage to signify the handover for the 2027 edition. Next year’s tournament is slated to return to Riyadh during the summer months, prompting a large contingent of Middle Eastern delegates to attend the Paris event. ذهب يحمل الذهب! 🏆«كرستيانو رونالدو» يدخل حاملًا كأس العالم للرياضات الإلكترونية في الحفل الختامي. pic.twitter.com/Lu0kZgi2WB— ألعاب ثمانية (@thmanyahgaming) August 23, 2026 Ronaldo reportedly available for Al Nassr’s next match The international trip came just two days after Ronaldo made his 2026-27 season debut against Al Riyadh, where he came off the bench in the second half and netted one of his side’s four goals in a 4-0 victory. Despite missing Sunday’s recovery training session, the team expects him to be cleared for match action. According to Al Nassr insider Ali Alabdallh, Ronaldo is scheduled to fly directly from Paris to Dammam on Monday morning. Upon arrival, the striker will link up with his teammates ahead of their Matchday 3 fixture against Al Ettifaq on Tuesday, August 25. Al Nassr currently sit atop the Saudi Pro League standings, tied on points with four other clubs after two consecutive wins but holding the top spot via a plus-seven goal difference. After missing the club’s first two official matches of the season, Ronaldo will aim to build momentum quickly as he continues his pursuit of the 1,000-career-goal milestone.

While being one of the most highlighted signings of the summer, Rodri won't be taking part of FC Barcelona's debut game in the 2026-27 La Liga against Elche CF. Rodri stands as one of FC Barcelona‘s most high-profile marquee signings during the 2026 summer transfer window. Now, as the Blaugrana open their 2026-27 La Liga campaign away against Elche CF on Sunday, August 23, questions have arisen over his complete absence from the matchday squad. Rodri will not participate in the season opener against Elche due to a lack of match fitness. Having recently finalized his move to Barcelona following an extended post-World Cup vacation and rehabilitation from a minor back procedure, the Spanish international has logged only a handful of training sessions with his new club. Consequently, head coach Hansi Flick decided to leave Rodri out of the 23-man squad entirely, keeping him in Catalonia to complete his recovery rather than traveling to the Martinez Valero Stadium. In his absence, Gavi and Marc Bernal will be covering the double pivot in midfield, with Pedri also available in the rotation. Thus far, Rodri has been following a tailored conditioning program to regain peak fitness following Spain’s deep run to the 2026 World Cup final. During recent session blocks, the midfielder trained separately under an individualized regimen, making an appearance against Elche an unrealistic expectation for the coaching staff. ❗| Rodri is still training individually to gain rhythm. It seems like he will NOT be available for the match against Elche tomorrow. [@NachoJP_] #fcblive 🔴pic.twitter.com/zXAVdslMH0— BarçaTimes (@BarcaTimes) August 22, 2026 Speaking in Saturday’s pre-match press conference, Flick addressed Rodri’s timeline after the marquee signing was spotted participating in light gym work alongside the squad: “He also trained on the pitch, he’s very concentrated, he’s focused on going back, an our plan is that he’ll arrive on Monday with the team. This is the plan, and we’re happy that he’s here.“ The German manager also underscored the tactical value of incorporating a world-class holding midfielder into his scheme. “He’s a fantastic player, a leader, and his personality is really great,” Flick stated, hoping to integrate the veteran into the squad for Thursday’s clash against Athletic Bilbao on August 27. La Liga debut following the World Cup With the 2026 World Cup extending deep into July, La Liga adjusted its opening-month calendar to allow international stars adequate recovery time. In Barcelona‘s case, key figures like Jules Kounde, Joao Cancelo, Pedri, Dani Olmo, and Anthony Gordon, who featured in the tournament’s final weekend, will begin Sunday’s match on the substitute bench. Regarding his rotation strategy for World Cup veterans, Flick emphasized patience: “It is normal that the players who played in the World Cup don’t play the full 90 minutes, though they may have to play a few minutes. You have to manage the minutes, and it isn’t easy. There are no valid excuses. We have to start by winning the first match. It won’t be easy because Elche controls the ball and moves it quickly. It won’t be easy. We have tremendous quality and we want the three points.“
