The five-time Ballon d’Or winner is 58 goals ahead of his nearest challenger, Lionel Messi, who is on 842. Brazilian legend Pelé is third on the list with 765.
Ronaldo was also the first to break the 800-goal barrier, doing so in late 2021 while in his second stint with Manchester United.
The Portugal captain’s 131 international goals in 209 appearances is also the most all-time. Messi is again second behind Ronaldo on that list; he and former Iran forward Ali Daei both have 109 goals.
As well as Al Nassr and Man United, Ronaldo also has divided his 769 club goals among Sporting CP, Real Madrid and Juventus.
The 39-year-old has made clear that he has no intention of slowing down any time soon and recently said he is already targeting his next goal milestone.
