Al-Nassr hero, Ronaldo, breaks Saudi Pro League record for most goals in a season

Cristiano Ronaldo shattered another record as he led Al-Nassr to a memorable 4-2 victory over Al-Ittihad in their final league game of the season.

Ronaldo scored twice, breaking the record for the most goals in a single Saudi Pro League season with his 35th goal, surpassing Moroccan forward Abderrazak Hamdallah’s 2018-19 tally of 34 goals.

The 39-year-old’s performance also brought his personal goal count to 50 in 50 games for Al-Nassr in the 2023-24 season. Additionally, the team surpassed the 100-goal mark in the league for the first time in their history.

Media reports suggest that Ronaldo may be offered a new deal after his record-breaking season, potentially extending his stay in the Middle East beyond his 40th birthday.

Ronaldo will next be seen in action on Friday when Al-Nassr faces unbeaten Saudi Arabian champions Al-Hilal in the King Cup final.

Reacting to his achievement, Ronaldo posted on X: “I don’t follow the records, the records follow me.”
