Cristiano Ronaldo has shattered the record for most goals scored in a single Saudi Pro League season, netting twice for Al-Nassr in a thrilling 4-2 victory over Al-Ittihad. This achievement brings his total to an impressive 35 goals, surpassing the previous record of 34 set by Abderrazak Hamdallah in the 2018-19 season. Notably, Hamdallah, also playing for Al-Nassr at the time, achieved his tally in four fewer matches.
At 39 years old, Ronaldo continues to defy age, proving his prowess on the field. Since his free transfer from Manchester United to Al-Nassr in January 2023, the Portuguese forward has scored 64 goals in 69 appearances across all competitions.
Despite Ronaldo’s remarkable performance, Al-Nassr finished second in the Saudi Pro League for the second consecutive season. They ended 14 points behind champions Al-Hilal but maintained a comfortable 17-point lead over third-placed Al-Ahli.
Ronaldo’s illustrious career spans 22 years, during which he has scored 765 goals playing for top clubs such as Sporting Lisbon, Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Juventus. Additionally, he holds the record for the most international goals, with 128 goals in 206 appearances for Portugal.
Ronaldo’s latest milestone adds another chapter to his extraordinary career, demonstrating that his goal-scoring abilities remain unmatched even as he approaches 40. His contribution to Al-Nassr has been invaluable, and his presence in the Saudi Pro League has undoubtedly raised the competition’s profile on the global stage.
