Cristiano Ronaldo’s Goal For 2024: Legendary football player Cristiano Ronaldo finished 2023 as the highest goal scorer in the world after an incredible year. The Portuguese superstar declared after reaching the milestone that he would aim to do so again the following year. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner scored 54 goals for Al Nassr, his current club, and his nation in 2023. Harry Kane, an English striker who recently joined Bayern Munich, finished in second place with 52 goals for his nation. PSG and French forward Kylian Mbappe scored 52 goals. Erling Halaand, a striker for City and Norway, scored 50 goals in the interim.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s Goal For 2024
Al-Nassr defeated Al-Taawoun 4-1, and Ronaldo scored his 54th goal of 2023 to help his team cut the deficit to seven points over league leaders Al-Hilal. Ronaldo’s goal put him two goals ahead of Kylian Mbappe of France, Harry Kane of England, and Bayern Munich (both with 52). The Portuguese great then set himself the goal of topping the list once more the following year in his remarks following the game.
Ronaldo expressed his happiness at reaching the milestone and being able to support his club and nation in an interview with the Saudi media source SSC Sports.
“I’m overjoyed; both personally and professionally, I had a great year. I was a huge asset to the team at Al-Nassr and to the national team, having scored a lot of goals. I’m happy and I feel well, and I’ll aim to do it again next year,” Ronaldo was cited by Goal.com.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
On February 12, Ronaldo and Al-Nassr will play their home team, Al-Feiha, in the Asian Champions League before the continent takes a vacation for the 2023 Asian Cup. Ronaldo will be looking to lead his team to the tournament’s first victory and add yet another trophy to his impressive collection.
Since joining Al-Nassr in December of last year, Ronaldo has continued to score goals wherever he has played. The 38-year-old’s goal-scoring instincts have not failed him, as he has continued to score goals for the Portugal national team and Saudi Arabia even after Erik ten Hag fired him from Manchester United.
Ronaldo is regarded as one of the world’s best football players and has established several records that are difficult to top. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner, Ronaldo, just signed a contract with Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr in January 2023. In 50 games, he has scored 44 goals for the new squad.
The Portuguese player has made 18 appearances and scored 20 goals for the Riyadh-based team in the current Saudi Pro League season. In the 2023–24 season, Ronaldo also contributed nine assists for Al Nassr.
The Portuguese sensation had previously left Juventus in 2021 to rejoin his childhood team, Manchester United. However, his time in England was short-lived after he attacked United coach Erik Ten Hag in a contentious interview with Piers Morgan.
Ten Hag’s contract was terminated by United when Ronaldo alleged that the Portuguese player was not treated with respect by Ten Hag. CR7 played 54 games and netted 27 goals during his second stint at United.
