“Tendinosis is not the same thing as tendinitis. It’s more serious because it takes longer to recover from, whereas tendinitis appears and disappears quickly. Tendinosis is an injury that is difficult to recover from in the period of time we are talking about, because it is related to overuse – the player did not stop and did not have the suitable treatment.
“It’s not a dangerous injury and there is practically no chance of a tendon rupture. But we will probably not have Cristiano like we are used to seeing him. Given the athlete that he is, I believe he will be ready to play Germany, but probably not the whole game or not at full capacity.”

Not sure what that means for him going forward, but try telling him to ease off. He'll want to play in Russia in 2018.
