The striker of Saudi Arabia's Al Nasr and the Portuguese national team, Cristiano Ronaldo, became the world's best footballer in terms of goals scored in 2023. The 38-year-old player has 53 goals in 58 matches for the club and the national team. It should be noted that the Portuguese will have to play one more match this year.
PSG and France striker Kylian Mbappe took second place in the list of top scorers at the end of the year, scoring 52 goals in 53 matches. The third was the Englishman Harry Kane. The Bayern Munich forward also scored 52 goals, but played more matches (57). Manchester City's Norwegian striker Erling Holland is fourth with 50 goals in 60 games.
Ronaldo's closest pursuers will not play this year. The French and German championships are on a winter break, and Norwegian Holland is still recovering from an injury and will not take part in City's next match against Sheffield Wednesday on 30 December.
Ну, это же надо было додуматься, сравнивать показатели чемпионата Саудовской Аравии с АПЛ, Бундеслигой 1 и первенством Франции!
