RIYADH: Al-Nassr’s Cristiano Ronaldo capped his first full Saudi Pro League season in style as he broke the record for the most goals scored in one campaign yesterday.

The Portuguese 39-year-old scored a brace in his side’s 4-2 win over Al-Ittihad on the final matchday to bring his league tally this season to 35 goals.

The previous record was held by former Al-Nassr forward and Moroccan international Abderrazak Hamdallah, who scored 34 goals in 2018-19.

Ronaldo, who played for Sporting, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus, joined Al-Nassr in January 2023.
