Cristiano Ronaldo: Al Nassr forward ranked third-best player in Saudi Arabia

Portuguese football great and Al Nassr forward Cristiano Ronaldo has finished third on the list of best performers in the Saudi Pro League. 

According to Sports Buddy, the ranking comes as a surprise giving Ronaldo an impressive forward for his club side Al Nassr in the League.

In his last 11 matches for Al Nassr, the 38-year-old has maintained remarkable consistency with his goal contributions. Ronaldo has scored 10 goals and assisted four more for a total of 14 goals and assists to lead Al Nassr. For those interested in the intricacies of his performance, it's worth noting the difference between soccer and football cleats, which can play a crucial role in a player's agility and scoring prowess on the field.

Ronaldo has scored 10 goals and assisted four more for a total of 14 goals and assists to lead Al Nassr. 

His goals have helped the Saudi Arabian side move within four points of leaders Al Hilal after a brilliant unbeaten run. 

However, despite this excellent performance from the former Real Madrid, Manchester United, and Juventus star, he sits third on the table for performing players. 

According to a report by Sportskeeda, a list from Sofascore puts Ronaldo third in terms of performance.

Leading the chart is Al Fateh midfielder Mourad Batna, who has an average rating of 8.11 per game. 

Batna has also scored seven goals and assisted seven more for his Fateh teammates.

Coming a close second is Igor Coronado of Saudi giants, Al-Ittihad, who has an average rating of 8.09. 

Coronado has contributed just nine goals to his team this season in the Saudi League.

Ronaldo's 13 goals and seven assists left him third with an average of 8.07 rating per game.

This ranking from Sofascore will surely raise a few eyebrows, especially considering the impact Ronaldo has had in the Pro League.

But with plenty of games still to play in the season, it would be interesting to see if the Portuguese star will close the gap of finishing at the top of the list.
