# Ronaldo given extra break by Al-Nassr as wedding rumours swirl 2026-08-09T14:16:16+00:00 | Sports | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Al-Nassr's coaching staff, led by Ange Postecoglou, have decided to extend Cristiano Ronaldo's break after Portugal's World Cup exit, according to 365Scores Arabic. The 41-year-old is expected to miss the Saudi Pro League opener against Al-Fateh and the King's Cup tie with Al-Diriyah. His likely return is now the August 21 match against Al-Riyadh. Ronaldo was not part of the squad during the club's pre-season camp in Lisbon. The delay has stoked wedding speculation around Ronaldo and partner Georgina Rodríguez, but his sister Elma Aveiro dismissed the rumours on Instagram, questioning why media assumed a ceremony was planned. Ronaldo himself responded with laughing emojis to similar reports. No wedding has been announced, and crowds that gathered in Madeira expecting one left disappointed. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Tags: Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo, football, Saudi Pro League, sports, wedding rumours Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/ronaldo-given-extra-break-by-al-nassr-as-wedding-rumours-swirl/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
