The 33-year-old is currently the joint top scorer in the league with Al Nassr’s Brazilian striker, Talisca, and Ittihad’s Abderrazzaq Hamdallah.

Ronaldo, who only moved to Al Nassr in January, has scored 11 goals in 10 league outings for the club.

Ighalo was the top scorer in the Saudi League with 24 goals last season.

Defending champions Al Hilal occupy the fourth position on the table, while Al Nassr sit in the second position.
