Cristiano Ronaldo Shatters Saudi Pro League Record

Ronaldo’s Stellar Performance

Cristiano Ronaldo broke the Saudi Pro League record after another incredible campaign. The Al Nassr forward scored two goals in the league’s final match against Al Ittihad, which they won 4-2, securing the second position in the table.

A Record-Breaking Campaign in Saudi Pro League

Ronaldo reached 35 goals, surpassing the previous record of 34 goals set by Abderrazak Hamdallah in the 2019/20 season. In addition to scoring 35 goals over 31 games, the 39-year-old also provided 11 assists to Al Nassr during his first full-time campaign with the club.

Beyond One Season

Ronaldo’s accomplishments extend beyond a single successful season. After finishing as the top goal scorer for the Saudi Pro League, Ronaldo has surpassed an impressive record. He has now become the first player to be the top goalscorer in four top leagues: the Premier League, LaLiga, Serie A, and the Saudi Pro League.

Cristiano Ronaldo Top Goal Scorer Across Major Leagues

Ronaldo won the Premier League Golden Boot with Manchester United in 2008. He was the league’s top goal scorer three times before becoming the top Serie A scorer in the 2020/21 season. The only top-tier league where Ronaldo hasn’t been the top goalscorer is Liga Portugal. During the 2002-03 season, Ronaldo scored three goals over 25 games as a teenager.

Future with Al Nassr and Euro 2024

Ronaldo has one year left on his deal with Al Nassr. The Saudi club is keen to keep him in the league for a longer period. Ronaldo is now aiming to lead Portugal to glory during Euro 2024, which gets underway next month.
