Ronaldo shines in Saudi after back-to-back win of Saudi Pro League Player of the Month awards

Cristiano Ronaldo, the star player of Al-Nassr, has secured back-to-back Saudi Pro League Player of the Month awards due to his exceptional performance in September.

In August, the 38-year-old managed to score five goals and provide two assists for his Saudi team, earning him the Player of the Month accolade.

He has now continued his impressive run in September, tallying another five goals and three assists. Ronaldo’s exceptional form has propelled Al-Nassr to fourth place in the league standings with six consecutive victories, rebounding from two losses in mid-August.

Despite his advancing age, the Portuguese international continues to showcase his goal-scoring prowess.

He not only leads the Saudi league as its top scorer with 10 goals this season but also shines as Portugal’s primary goal-getter with five goals in their Euro 2024 qualifying campaign.

Remarkably, Ronaldo has already outperformed his goal tally from the previous season with Al-Nassr, having netted 17 goals in just 16 matches, compared to 14 goals in 19 games last term.

Ronaldo and Al-Nassr are set to face Abha in the league this Friday afternoon. Should results go in their favour later this week, they may ascend to the top of the league table.
