In this article, we will learn about Cristiano Ronaldo’s stats in 2024 and how close he has come to his 1,000-goal mark.
The Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo finished the 2023–24 season in Saudi Arabia with 50 goals in 51 appearances across all competitions.
But in his first full season in the Middle East, the 39-year-old was unable to win the Saudi Pro League championship. In 2025, the former Manchester United player hopes to change that, and his goals will be essential to their title challenge.
Ronaldo’s current contract in Riyadh expires at the end of the 2024/25 season and he faces a key call on his next career step. He is resolved to keep playing as he attempts to reach 1,000 goals before retiring, regardless of what the future holds.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner has started the 2024–25 season with a solid start after breaking the record for goals in a Saudi Pro League the previous season.
He has scored 11 goals in 16 games across all competitions since his team defeated Al Gharafa 3-1 in the AFC Champions League on November 25.
Ronaldo scored in the semifinal and final of Al Nassr’s two Saudi Super Cup matches. Al Nassr lost to Al Hilal in the final, though, and his failure to win a trophy in Saudi Arabia persisted.
Overall, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 40 goals and has provided 7 assists in 49 total appearances in 2024.

As a matter of fact, the 2023/24 season was Ronaldo’s highest goal-scoring season since 2015/16 when he scored 51 goals for Real Madrid as they went on to life the UEFA Champions League trophy.
He earned the league Golden Boot with 35 goals in 31 games, most of which came in Saudi Pro League play.
