The Portuguese team
has not yet won this international competition
and if it does,
CR7 would have five UEFA Champions Leagues and one AFC Champions League
.
Last season the Arab club did not qualify for the tournament, which is why Cristiano had not been able to play it.
Cristiano arrived
after a fateful season at Manchester United
, where he played
54 games,
scored
27 goals
and
five assists
, to play
in the 2022-23 season
.
In his first season in the Arab team
he played 19 games
and scored
14 goals

He was
the first star player
to arrive in
Arab football
, his arrival was later joined by figures such as
Neymar
,
Kanté
,
Benzema
,

,
Jordan Henderson
and
