Ronaldo made the controversial gesture moments after he was involved in an altercation with Colombian midfielder Gustavo Cuellar.

Ronaldo becomes 'photographer'

However, the Portuguese talisman seems to have put that behind him - if the latest images from Al Nassr's training session are anything to go by.

The former Manchester United attacker was all smiles as he and his teammates trained ahead of their semi-final King Cup of Champions clash against Al-Wehda on Monday night.

So much so that he teased a career change by assuming the role of a photographer midway through the session.

The veteran striker was spotted taking a few shots with a pro camera, with the images widely shared online.

Below are some of the reactions from fans:

Crisis in Ronaldo's relationship

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Ronaldo's love life is reportedly in crisis, with issues believed to have rocked his relationship with Georgina Rodriguez. The rumours, which started earlier this year, have reemerged despite the couple putting a solid face on social media.

They recently moved to Saudi Arabia after Ronaldo secured the most expensive football contract in history with Al-Nassr following the termination of his contract by Manchester United.

Like any other celebrity relationship, there have always been unconfirmed rumours of differences between the two. The latest has come from a Portuguese television program Noite das Estrelas (Night of Stars), where a psychologist, a journalist and a close friend of the family were invited to give their opinions on Ronaldo's relationship.
