"I am proud to have broken the Saudi Arabian Pro League record for most goals in a single season."
Cristiano Ronaldo (39, Al-Nassr), who broke the record for most goals in a single season (35 goals) in Saudi Arabian
professional football in 2023-2024 and won the scoring title, emphasized, "My goal is to do my best every season and win
the title."
In an interview released on the Saudi Pro League website on the 4th (Korean time), Ronaldo said, "I am personally very
happy to have won the scoring title," and looked back, "It was the best season of my career in terms of both scoring and
assists."
Ronaldo, who joined Al Nassr in January last year, scored 14 goals and ranked 5th in scoring despite joining in the middle
of the 2022-2023 season, and was the top scorer this season.
Ronaldo has scored 50 goals (35 in the regular league, 3 in the cup competition, 6 in the ACL, and 6 in the Arab Club
Champions Cup) in 51 official matches this season, including 4 hat-tricks in the regular league.
If we only look at the Saudi League performance, it is 35 goals and 11 assists. 35 goals is the highest number of goals in a
single season in the Saudi regular league.
Ronaldo surpassed the previous record of 34 goals set by Moroccan Al-Nassr player Abderrazak Hamdallah in the 2018-
2019 season, five years after his 안전 debut.
"It means a lot to me," Ronaldo said of his record goals. "Honestly, it means more to me because I achieved it. It wasn't the
record I was aiming for at the start of the season, but as time went on, I thought, 'I can do it. '"
"I am grateful to my teammates. Without them, I could not have done anything on my own," he said. "I am proud to have
broken Saudi Arabia's record for most goals in a single season. I am incredibly happy and proud. This is what motivates
me to play and train."
Ronaldo's attention is now focused on the performance of his home country Portugal in the 2024 UEFA European Football
Championship (Euro 2024), which opens in Germany on the 14th local time.
Portugal, the Euro 2016 winners, will compete in Group F of Euro 2024 alongside Turkey, Georgia and the Czech
Republic.
Ronaldo emphasized, "My goal every season is the same. I want to do my best to win the trophy," and "I will do my best
not only for Al-Nassr but also for the Portuguese national team to show you the Ronaldo you have always seen. I will
maintain my current level."
