Cristiano Ronaldo has set a new record for the most goals scored
Cristiano Ronaldo has set a new record for the most goals scored in a single Saudi Pro League season. In Al Nassr’s final game of the season, Ronaldo scored his 34th and 35th goals, surpassing the previous record of 34 goals set by Moroccan player Abderrazak Hamdallah in the 2018-19 season.
Ronaldo, 39, joined Al Nassr in December 2022, marking the beginning of a trend of international players signing lucrative contracts with Saudi clubs. He expressed his joy on social media, stating, “I don’t follow the records, the records follow me.”
In the game against Al Ittihad, Ronaldo scored just before halftime and then again with a header in the 69th minute, helping Al Nassr secure a 4-2 victory. Despite this win, Al Nassr finished the season in second place, 14 points behind the champions, Al Hilal.
Ronaldo’s arrival at Al Nassr has had a significant impact on the league, attracting other big-name players like Karim Benzema, Neymar Jr., and Riyad Mahrez to the Saudi Pro League. Beyond his goal-scoring, Ronaldo also showcased his playmaking skills, finishing third in the league with 11 assists.
As the most capped player in men’s international football, with 206 appearances and a record 128 goals for Portugal, Ronaldo continues to be a dominant force in the sport. He will soon be focusing on the upcoming European Championship in Germany, aiming to add another international trophy to his collection.
In summary, Cristiano Ronaldo’s remarkable achievement of breaking the Saudi Pro League scoring record highlights his enduring talent and influence in the world of football.
