OFFICIAL: Ronaldo is recognized within the Saudi Pro League.

Following his fruitful 2025/26 campaign with Al Nassr, Cristiano Ronaldo received further acclaim by being named in the Saudi Pro League Fantasy All-Star Team due to his outstanding contributions during the league championship run.

On June 4, the Saudi Pro League's official social media platforms released the news. The post stated: “Following 34 rounds, the 2025/26 Saudi Pro League Fantasy All-Star lineup has officially been unveiled”, along with a photo of the season's 11 standout players.

As expected, Cristiano Ronaldo features in the attacking line of this team. He lines up alongside Ivan Toney from Al Ahli and Roger Martinez from Al-Taawoun. Moreover, CR7's fellow Al Nassr player, Joao Felix, earned a spot after contributing significantly to the team's championship victory.

Completing the Team of the Season are goalkeeper Marek Rodak (Al-Ettifaq), Mohammed Abu Al Shamat and Julian Quinones (Al Qadsiah), Danilo Pereira (Al Ittihad), Theo Hernandez and Ruben Neves (Al Hilal), and Yannick Carrasco (Al-Shabab).

What does Saudi Pro League Fantasy entail?

The Saudi Pro League Fantasy is a virtual football management game for supporters. Participants receive a specific budget to assemble a team of current Saudi Pro League athletes, following constraints like a maximum of three players from any single club.

Points for each player are awarded according to real-life match performances. The combined score of the 11 players decides the user's results for each game week as well as their position on the season-long leaderboard.

During the 2025/26 campaign, Cristiano Ronaldo ranked among the highest point‑scorers in Saudi Pro League Fantasy, accumulating 296 points and securing a spot in the All‑Star lineup. Julian Quinones led with 356 points, with Ivan Toney (319) and Joao Felix (311) trailing behind.

Ronaldo is honored repeatedly.

Earning a place in the Saudi Pro League Fantasy All‑Star Team is only one of numerous personal honors for Ronaldo from the recent season. Previously, the Portugal skipper was among the final five nominees for the Saudi Pro League's Player of the Year award.

This accolade is determined through votes from team captains, managers, journalists, and supporters. Nevertheless, It was Joao Felix who ultimately claimed the prize.

However, Ronaldo was chosen by the fans as the Most Admired Player of the Season, bringing an end to an unforgettable season with Al Nassr. Significantly, the 2025/26 Saudi Pro League championship marked Ronaldo's first collective honor since his arrival at the club in January 2023.

At the age of 41, Ronaldo retains significant impact on both the pitch and in the media, further cementing his position as one of the most outstanding figures in the Saudi Pro League.
