Ronaldo’s crisp side-foot into the far corner may have been the 962nd goal of his senior career for club and country, taking his tally to 18 in 19 Saudi Pro League games this season. However, he is not the most prolific scorer in the Kingdom’s top flight.

That distinction currently belongs to former Brentford forward Ivan Toney. The England international has rattled in 20 goals across as many league outings this season for Al Ahli, who sit just two points behind Al Nassr in third place.

Toney owes his lofty standing to a post-Christmas burst. Since the turn of the year, the 29-year-old has racked up 14 goals in just 10 games. Ronaldo can only boast five strikes in 2026, with his ratio not particularly aided by self-imposed exile.

Ronaldo isn’t even alone with his tally of 18 goals—28-year-old Mexico international Julián Quiñones has also amassed the same haul for Al Qadsiah this season.
