Having been out for 54 days, Cristiano Ronaldo is set for a 30-minute run-out against FC Zurich in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

The former Manchester United winger trained yesterday and ended the session feeling no ill effects from his ankle injury.

Ronaldo has missed 10 Real Madrid matches and if he comes through his spell against Zurich is now expected to start in the Nou Camp next Sunday night.

Real Madrid are cautious about this injury as it was complicated by returning to soon for Portugal’s match with Hungary and Los Blancos do not want to repeat the same mistake.
