In the history of football, the name Cristiano Ronaldo stands out as one of those whose fame exceeds the sport, thanks to numerous achievements and accolades.
While the sun sets on Ronaldo’s time at Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr, he leaves behind a legacy that speaks volumes.
It is imperative to examine some of Ronaldo’s most remarkable records at Al-Nassr and why they may never be broken.
Highest goals in a single Saudi Pro League season
By scoring 35 goals in the 2023-24 Saudi Pro League season, Cristiano Ronaldo set a new benchmark and surpassed Abderrazak Hamdallah’s previous record of 34 goals in 2018-19.
The record, which was achieved in 31 matches, is a testament to Ronaldo’s prolific scoring rate (averaging a goal every 75.6 minutes). This makes it a formidable record to beat.
First player to score against 200 different opponents
The Portuguese became the first footballer to find the back of the net against 200 different opponents (152 clubs and 48 national teams) in November 2024 after scoring against Al Qadisiyah.
In a career spanning over two decades, Ronaldo has shown his scoring prowess across different leagues and international competitions.
Most hat-tricks for Al-Nassr
Since he joined Al-Nassr in 2023, Ronaldo has scored six hat-tricks in 111 appearances across all competitions, contributing to his career total of 66, the highest among active players.
Despite his age (40 in 2025), Ronaldo’s ability to deliver multiple goals in a single match sets a high standard for future Al-Nassr players.
First player to clinch top scorer honours in four different top-flight leagues
Ronaldo had a phenomenal 2023–24 Saudi Pro League season.
He won the Golden Boot that season, making him the first player to win top scorer awards in four different top-flight leagues (Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, and Saudi Pro League).
The feat is unlikely to be repeated anytime soon.
Highest-scoring European player in Al-Nassr history
As of May 2025, Ronaldo is the highest goalscoring European player in Al-Nassr history with 99 goals in 111 appearances.
The above also makes him the fifth-highest overall in the club’s history.
