Cristiano Ronaldo has been left out of Portugal's squad for their upcoming match against Sweden. Initially included in the preliminary squad, he has been given a rest along with several other players. The decision was made to provide Ronaldo with some time off as he is currently on a short vacation with his family in Saudi Arabia, where the Saudi Pro League is on a break for the international fixtures.
Ronaldo recently played the full 90 minutes for Al-Nassr, his club in Saudi Arabia, indicating the need for rest before another busy period. Despite being omitted for this match, he is expected to return to the squad for Portugal's subsequent friendly. Given his importance to the team, Ronaldo is likely to feature prominently for Portugal during the summer, particularly in the European Championships, where Portugal is considered one of the contenders.
After the friendly against Sweden, Ronaldo will resume action for Portugal when they face Slovenia. Subsequently, he will return to club duties with Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League, where they will compete against Al-Tai as they pursue success in the league.
