Cristiano Ronaldo has reported back to Al Nassr training in Riyadh displaying a striking copper-yellow hairstyle, shortly after marrying longtime companion Georgina Rodríguez in a private ceremony in Portugal following Portugal’s elimination from the 2026 World Cup.

The Portuguese forward shared photographs of himself in the club’s training kit on Thursday through online platforms, with a simple “Back” caption.

The images revealed the 41-year-old sporting the new copper-yellow hair, a marked shift from the dark brown he had maintained for years, including throughout Portugal’s World Cup participation.

Ronaldo rejoined the squad following Portugal’s Round of 16 exit at the hands of Spain.

Al Nassr had granted him extended time away following the tournament and his private civil wedding to Rodríguez on August 11 in Cascais, Portugal.

The intimate gathering included their five children, and the couple together for nearly a decade announced the marriage through a photograph of their wedding rings.

During the previous season, Ronaldo contributed to Al Nassr’s long-awaited domestic success by winning the Saudi Pro League title.

His 28 league goals helped secure the championship with 86 points, finishing two ahead of rivals Al Hilal.

The achievement marked his first major trophy with the Riyadh club since joining in late 2022 and Al Nassr’s inaugural league crown since 2019.

Club coach Ange Postecoglou and teammates received Ronaldo with applause during training, honouring both his return and recent marriage.

The club circulated training images online, teasing supporters about the arrival with playful commentary.

Ronaldo now prepares for the new Saudi Pro League season as a married man. Al Nassr begins their title defence against Al Fateh on August 15.

Online users reacted enthusiastically to the photographs and his new appearance, with supporters offering congratulations on his marriage, welcoming him back to competition, and commenting on his distinctive new look.

The new season represents another phase for the five-time Ballon d’Or recipient as he pursues further career achievements with Al Nassr.
