Ronaldo in the top 3 best scorers of the year

In yesterday's encounter between Al-Nassr and Al-Wahda, Cristiano Ronaldo netted his third goal for his side in the 49th minute. Ultimately, Al-Nassr secured a victory over their rival with a 3-1 scoreline.

This goal marked Ronaldo's 45th strike this calendar year, both for his club and the national team. Outpacing him were only Harry Kane from Bayern with 47 goals and Erling Haaland from Manchester City with 46.

The players showcasing the best goal-scoring proficiency seem to be those who have recently switched clubs and managed to "breathe fresh air." Ronaldo joined an Arabian side earlier this year, while Haaland made the transition from Borussia Dortmund to an English club last summer. In contrast, Harry Kane moved from Tottenham to Germany in the most recent off-season.

Presently, the Portuguese icon leads the scoring charts in the Saudi Professional League this season. His tally of thirteen goals positions the 38-year-old forward as the most prolific player. Alexander Mitrovic from Al-Hilal follows suit with ten goals, nearing Ronaldo's count but yet to match it.

Cristiano Ronaldo continues to exhibit a remarkable level of professionalism and goal-scoring prowess, solidifying his status as a prominent figure in his team.
