Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo has been left off the team's squad for friendly matches against Mexico and the United States as he continues to recover from a right hamstring injury.
Ronaldo, 41, has sat out Al Nassr's Saudi Pro League matches versus Neom and Al Khaleej.
He has undergone treatment in Madrid in the past two weeks but will be unable to suit up versus Mexico on March 28 in Mexico City and against the U.S. on March 31 in Atlanta.
