Newly-wedded Ronaldo returns to Al Nassr training with golden new look
by Moronfolu Adeyemi · The Eagle OnlineCristiano Ronaldo has returned to Al Nassr training in Riyadh as a newly married man, sporting a striking copper-yellow hairstyle.
The 41-year-old Portuguese forward resumed training days after marrying longtime partner Georgina Rodríguez in a private ceremony in Portugal.
Ronaldo announced his return on social media on Thursday by posting pictures of himself in Al Nassr’s training kit with the caption, “Back 🟡🔵”.
The new copper-yellow hairstyle represented a major change from the dark brown look he had worn for years, including during Portugal’s 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign.
Ronaldo was given additional time off by Al Nassr following Portugal’s exit from the World Cup and his wedding to Rodríguez on August 11 in Cascais, Portugal.
The private ceremony was attended by their five children, with the couple confirming their marriage by sharing a photograph of their wedding rings.
