How many goals does Cristiano Ronaldo need to be the top scorer in 2023?

At 38 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to fight for individual titles alongside the best footballers in the world. ‘CR7’ this time is in the dispute for the ‘Golden Boot 2023’, this season, Cristiano has scored 51 goals in 57 games – combining games with Al Nassr and the Portuguese national team -, the ‘Commander’ returned to his highest level after an unpleasant time at Manchester United.

Although Ronaldo is now in third place as the year’s top scorer, he is not that far from first place, which is shared by Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappé, forwards for Bayern Munich and PSG, both scorers have 52 goals, only 1 more than the ‘Bug’.

‘Cris’ has an advantage, that in the year, he still has two more games to play with Al Nassr, against Al Ittihad and Al Taawon, while the other players no longer play for the remainder of the season. The only one who could pass him or reach him is Erling Haaland, who with 50 goals, is in fourth place.

Although Manchester City has 2 more games left to play in the Premier League, it is likely that they will not have the ‘Android’, since he has an injury, the same one that left him out of the 2023 Club World Cup final, where They were crowned champions after beating Fluminense 4-0.
