Cristiano Ronaldo (38) just can’t help it. With his move to Saudi Arabia to the Al-Nassr club, the football star caused a sensation around the world. At his new club, the Portuguese are said to earn around 200 million euros a year. But that’s not all: In order to promote Saudi Arabia as the host country of the World Cup in 2030, Cristiano is said to get another 198 million euros. However, his performance seems to be worth this mega salary.
In the 21st minute of the Saudi club’s league game against Al Wehda, Cristiano netted the ball – but that was no ordinary goal for him: it was the 500th league goal of his career. And because it was so nice, Cristiano shot three more shots afterward – and it only took him 61 minutes.
However, the Portuguese scored the most goals in Spanish La Liga: he scored a total of 331 times there in the dress of record champions Real Madrid. There are also 103 goals in the British Premier League, 81 in Italian Serie A, and three in the Portuguese league. Cristiano now has five goals to his credit in Saudi Arabia.
