The former Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus player "has started a rehabilitation programme and his condition will be assessed day by day," Al Nassr said.
Ronaldo, who is in line to play in a record sixth World Cup, was injured during a match at Al Fayha last month in the Saudi Pro League.
