An MRI scan has confirmed that the 31-year-old
is suffering from muscle fatigue and is likely to
sit out of Saturday's clash with Rayo
Vallecano Cristiano Ronaldo is set to miss out on
another record by sitting out of Real Madrid’s La
Liga clash with Rayo Vallecano on Saturday.
The Portugal international limped out of
Madrid’s 3-0 victory over Villarreal on
Wednesday and a subsequent MRI scan has
confirmed that the 31-year-old is suffering from
muscle fatigue.
Ronaldo has not missed a game in La Liga this
term and the forward, who has 31 goals in 34
appearances so far, was on course to be only
the second outfield player to have played every
minute of an entire season.
Other than goalkeepers, Fabricio Coloccini is
currently the only outfield player to achieve this
after he played in all of Deportivo La Coruna’s
38 games in the 2007-08 campaign.
Madrid travel to Vallecano a point behind La
Liga leaders Barcelona, who host Sporting Gijon
on Saturday evening.
