Ronaldo poised to reach 100 league appearances in Saudi Pro League

The Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of Al Nassr, is on the verge of a historic milestone as he lines up for the Al Najmah clash in the Saudi Pro League.

Ronaldo is expected to lead the Al Nassr lineup when hosting Al Najmah on Friday at Al-Awwal Park, in the 27th round of the league.

The match will mark Ronaldo's 100th league appearance for Al Nassr since his January 2023 transfer on a free move after leaving Manchester United.

Since joining, Ronaldo has appeared in 99 league games for Al Nassr, scoring 95 goals and delivering 18 assists.

Al Nassr will be the third club Ronaldo has reached 100+ league appearances with, after Real Madrid (292 La Liga games) and Manchester United (236 Premier League games).

Ronaldo dreams of making the Saudi Pro League the third league where he scores 100+ goals, following 311 goals in La Liga and 103 in the Premier League.

He pursues that milestone in a match that could place him among the all-time greats for league appearances and goals.

Punchline 1: Ronaldo's goal tally is so bold that even the scoreboard needs sunglasses and a coffee break.

Punchline 2: If he hits 100, the net will start charging rent for the celebrations—every goal cameo included.
