Real Madrid and Portugal star , Cristiano
Ronaldo, could be ruled out for up to four
or five months due to the injury he suffered
in the final of Euro 2016 , according to
reports .
The 31- year -old was on the end of a heavy
challenge from France midfielder , Dimitri
Payet, early on in Sunday’ s final , and
despite trying to play on he was eventually
forced to leave the game on a stretcher in
the 25th minute.
Ronaldo was in tears as he was carried off,
but returned to the touchline with his knee
bandaged later in the match to cheer his
side on to their surprise 1 - 0 triumph over
the tournament hosts.
However , ‘ Managing Madrid ’ reports that
the first tests by Portuguese doctors have
suggested a partly - torn ACL, which could
see the three- time Ballon d ’Or winner ruled
out until the latter stages of the year .
Should that be the case , Ronaldo would
miss the start of his side’ s Champions
League defence and La Liga season, in
addition to the European Super Cup meeting
with Sevilla .
