Mumbai : Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus has left Cristiano Ronaldo out of Al-Nassr’s squad for Wednesday’s AFC Champions League 2 match against FC Goa, arriyadiyah.com reported.

FC Goa will host Saudi club Al-Nassr at the Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Fatorda, Goa, on October 22 for a Group D fixture of the AFC Champions League Two 2025-26.

Quoting a source close to the club, the Al-Nassr team will leave for Goa on Monday afternoon without injured Croatian midfielder Marcelo Brozovic, in addition to a number of foreign players.

Al-Nassr had reportedly applied for his visa but Ronaldo’s contract has a clause, giving him the right to pick and choose matches outside Saudi Arabia.
