Cristiano Ronaldo returned to regular training with Real Madrid on Monday as part of his recovery from a serious ankle injury.
The Portugal winger took part in exercise drills involving running and ball play at the Spanish club's Valdebebas training field. Ronaldo injured his right ankle on Sept. 30 but hasn't played since aggravating the problem while playing for Portugal on Oct. 10.
No date has been set for the 24-year-old Ronaldo's return, although he hopes to be back for the Spanish league match against Barcelona on Nov. 29.
Ronaldo scored nine goals as Madrid won all seven games he played in before the injury. The Spanish powerhouse has since been eliminated from the Copa del Rey after losing to third-tier Alcorcon.
