After Portugal's exit from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, losing to Morocco, many assumed that Cristiano Ronaldo's reign in football was over. But in just one year, the Portuguese superstar proved those predictions to be false. Ronaldo is going to end the year with the top spot (53 goals) in the list of highest scorers in 2023. On his way to the top of the list, Ronaldo has overtaken stars like Harry Kane, Kylian Mbappe and Arling Holland.


Mbappe and Kane finished the year with 52 goals. And Holland scored 50 goals. Hollande's omission from Manchester City's squad for tonight's match against Sheffield United has confirmed Ronaldo's place at the top. City coach Pep Guardiola has confirmed Holland's absence against Sheffield. When asked about the team's injury situation, Guardiola said, "Nothing has changed since the last match." Previous injured players are there, John Stones has also joined.


It is certain that his goal number will not increase this year due to the absence of Holland. However, if Ronaldo wants, he can increase his number of goals this year for the club and the national team. Al Nasr will take on Al Town tonight in the Saudi Pro League. If you score in this match, 'CR Seven' will rise further.


Topping the year-end goalscorer list is not new for Ronaldo. From 2011 to 2023, Ronaldo was on top of the list 5 times. Lionel Messi and Robert Lewandowski, among others, ended the year as the top scorer twice.
