Messi has already scored nine goals and set up seven others, even though he has only played in seven games because of injuries. Even though he has played three fewer games than Cristian Arango, he already has more goals than the Colombian star and is the tournament’s top scorer.

In this situation, it’s impossible not to compare him to Cristiano Ronaldo, another great pro who is still shining on the other side of the world. Even though CR7 probably won’t win any titles with Al Nassr, the fact that he scored the most goals in the Saudi Pro League gives him a huge edge.

Now, if Lionel Messi keeps up this speed, Ronaldo’s big record is close at hand. It might even happen in the last few weeks of 2024.

Between Messi and Ronaldo, who has scored more goals?

Lionel Messi has scored 844 goals in his amazing career and is very close to becoming the all-time top scorer. Of course, Cristiano Ronaldo is the main goal to reach this.

CR7 has scored 890 goals, but his age could be a big problem. Leo is three years older than Ronaldo, and with only 53 goals separating them now, Messi seems to have a lot of room to beat him.

That being said, everyone is also very interested in whether either of them will hit the legendary 1000 goals. The famous race could have a big year in 2024.

Both Messi and Cristiano will keep playing for their clubs, but they will also play for their countries in the Copa America and the UEFA Euro. That might help them reach their goal of making more. But, as we already said, CR7’s departure date will be the most important thing in this race.
