Update:

Since joining Al-Nassr in 2023, major silverware has eluded Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese striker did win the Arab Club Champions Cup (2023), but as of the current 2025–26 season, he has yet to win the Saudi Pro League title, notably finishing as runner-up in previous campaigns.

That all changed on Tuesday night as his Al Nassr side finally bagged the SPL title for the first time in seven years and did so with a win over city rivals and sporting nemesis in recent years Al Hilal.

On a charged evening at Al-Awwal Park, the yellow and blue side of Riyadh prevailed with a 1-0 with the only goal of the night coming in the first half as defender Mohamed Simakan struck for the home side. With the win, and with two games outstanding for second placed Al Hial to complete the season, Al Nassr are mathematically 2025/26 champions.

Most major league wins

As things stand, João Cancelo has made history by becoming the first player to win league titles in four of Europe’s “Big Five” leagues (England, Spain, Italy, and Germany).

Following Barcelona’s 2-0 win over Real Madrid last Sunday the Portuguese player has now won league titles with the following clubs: Benfica (2014), Juventus (2019), Bayern Munich (2023), Man City (2021, 2022 and 2023), FC Barcelona (2026).

By securing the 2025–26 La Liga title, Cancelo surpassed players like Thierry Henry and Cristiano Ronaldo by winning league titles in four of the five major European leagues (England, Italy, Germany, and Spain). The only one remaining for him to “complete the set” is France’s Ligue 1.
