When it comes to records, several of them bear the name of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Now, the current captain of Al Nassr will face Al-Hilal in a match that not only stands out for the rivalry between the leader and the runner-up of the 2025-26 Saudi Pro League, but also because Cristiano could set a new goal record.

CR7 is looking for a new milestone in soccer
After a strong and unbeatable start with 10 consecutive victories, Al-Nassr was unable to continue its unbeatable pace and spirit and has only earned one point in its last three games. Al Hilal leads the league with 35 points, followed by CR7 and his teammates with 31.
Now, ahead of the match to be played at the Kingdom Arena on the fifteenth day of the Saudi league, Cristiano Ronaldo could make history and become the club’s top foreign goalscorer.
Since arriving at Al Nassr in 2022, the Portuguese captain has scored a total of 114 goals and is just one goal away from equaling or two or more away from surpassing Abderrazak Hamdallah, the Moroccan star who scored 115 goals in 109 games for the club between 2018 and 2021, which many fans consider the peak of his career.
However, even if CR7 manages to surpass this mark, he will have needed 19 more games than Hamdallah to reach the milestone of 115 goals, as he has worn the Al Nassr colors 128 times.
Meanwhile, CR7 is in fourth place as the club’s all-time leading scorer, followed by Hamdallah in third place and Mohammad Al-Sahlawi in second place, with 131 goals. Majed Abdullah leads with 259 goals, almost double Cristiano’s tally, scored between 1977 and 1998.
Despite this, Cristiano is currently the top scorer in soccer history with 958 goals and is only 42 goals away from reaching 1,000, something no other player has ever achieved.
Now we just have to wait and see if CR7 also becomes the highest-scoring foreign player in the club’s history.
