Cristiano Ronaldo made a dramatic return to Al Nassr’s training ground in Riyadh, showcasing a bold copper-blonde hairdo just days after tying the knot with Georgina Rodríguez in an intimate Portuguese ceremony following Portugal’s World Cup exit.

The football icon posted snaps on social media Thursday, donning the club’s training gear, with a succinct caption: “Ready.”

At 41, Ronaldo debuted his striking new hair color—a stark departure from his signature dark brown, which he had maintained throughout Portugal’s World Cup campaign.

The legendary forward rejoined Al Nassr after Spain eliminated Portugal in the knockout stage, then enjoyed an extended break for his wedding on August 11 in Cascais.

The low-key ceremony, attended by their five children, was marked by a social media post featuring their intertwined wedding bands.

Last season, Ronaldo played a pivotal role in Al Nassr’s Saudi Pro League triumph, netting 28 goals to secure their first league title since 2019, narrowly edging out Al Hilal.

Head coach Ange Postecoglou and the squad welcomed him back to training with cheers, celebrating his return as a newlywed.

Al Nassr fueled excitement among fans by sharing training footage online, hinting at his comeback.

Ronaldo, now married, gears up for Al Nassr’s season opener against Al Fateh on August 15 as they defend their league crown.

The online world erupted over his daring new look, with fans applauding his marital milestone and fresh style ahead of another competitive season.

As he enters this new chapter, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner eyes further accolades with Al Nassr.
