Cristiano Ronaldo finishes 2023 as the topmost goal-scorer

After a forgetful 2022, Cristiano Ronaldo has made an emphatic comeback to the block. The goal drought took the form of goal flow, and the iconic footballer went back to his phenomenal goal-scoring ways. Playing for Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr and national side Portugal, Ronaldo has achieved a unique feat by breaching the 50-goal mark at the age of 38. With EURO 2024 approaching, the form of Cristiano Ronaldo is an ideal taking for the Portuguese side and if he keeps netting the goals then once again the football world will witness his name at the forefront of many rankings.
