The outstanding player for Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo, has received the prestigious honour of Saudi Pro League Player of the Month for August. With this outstanding accomplishment, he becomes the only player to get this honour in four different nations, having already received it in England, Spain, and Italy.

Ronaldo's performance this month has been spectacular. He helped Al Nassr win their first Arab Club Champions Cup. Ronaldo scored twice to give Al Nassr a 2-1 win over Al Hilal in extra time despite playing with nine men. Ronaldo left the game with a knee injury after scoring his second goal.

Due to Ronaldo's absence, Al Nassr lost their first two Saudi Pro League games under Luis Castro. Ronaldo miraculously recovered from his knee injury and made headlines again with a hat-trick against Al Fateh. This remarkable performance, his first in Saudi Arabia, earned him his 63rd career hat-trick. In the last match,  Ronaldo, scored twice against Al Shabab. He sacrificed a hat-trick to allow Abdulrahman Ghareeb to take a penalty and score his first goal of the season. Al Nassr missed the penalty because the Saudi Arabian winger failed to convert.  CR7 and the team will soon be seen in action on Saturday against Al-Hazm.
