Jose unsure on Ronaldo

by Setanta Staff , 15 March 2011

Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho has insisted that he does not know whether Cristiano Ronaldo will feature against Lyon on Wednesday.


The former Manchester United star has been key for the Spanish giants this season, scoring 28 goals in La Liga as Real sit five points behind rivals Barcelona.

Ronaldo picked up a slight hamstring injury after scoring a hat-trick in the 7-0 thrashing of Malaga on March 3 and has not featured for the club since.

The capital club face French bogey outfit Lyon at the Santiago Bernabeu in their Champions League second leg clash on Wednesday, with both sides scoring a goal each in the first encounter.

And Mourinho is unsure if his the world's most expensive footballer will be fit in time for the Lyon clash. He said: "I don't know whether he is going to play or not. We'll wait until the final training session to decide.

"I'm not a doctor and I'm not the player, so I will leave it to the medical department to decide.

"I have nothing to hide. If he is well, he will play. But you will have to wait a little."
