Ronaldo's incredible number at 38: 12 games played, 13 goals, and 7 assists isnhis tally for Al Nassr this season

Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo continues to demonstrate how incredible he is as a footballer. So far this season in the Saudi League he has scored more goals than matches, and what he has made clear is that with the arrival of several European stars, his level has risen to assert his dominance.

Over the course of 12 games played, 13 goals and 7 assists is his tally.

CR7 is making a mockery of the saying "age is just a number" and at 38 years old, he is still at a great level.

It brings his overall record since arriving in the Middle East following the mutual termination of his Manchester United contract to 30 goals and 11 assists in 36 games and 3257 minutes.

It's the same rate that he's averaged throughout his long career at Manchester United, Real Madrid, Juventus, and Manchester United again with him being too young to make an impression at Sporting Lisbon.

Ronaldo's overall career numbers stand at a stunning 731 goals in 985 games. Already enough to be considered one of the greatest of all time on that alone, it gets even more ridiculous when one adds the 234 assists. A total of 965 goals and assists in 985 games.

For context, if a player averaged 50 per season it would take them almost 20 years to hit the same number. If they averaged 20, a strong rate in itself, it would take nearly half a century.

Adding his Portugal stats to the equation gives him an extra 128 goals and 46 assists in 205 games for his country in 16,000 minutes, with 142 of them coming in competitive formats such as World Cups Euros, or qualifiers.

It's no wonder why he has managed to win 30 club trophies, including five Champions League awards. He also has five Ballon d'Ors between 2008-2017.
