Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi: Who has better goal contribution rate at their current club?

Lionel Messi recently reached 100 goal contributions with Inter Miami.

Lionel Messi set a new record as an Inter Miami player after he recorded a hat-trick of assists in their 4-1 win over New England Revolution. Following his treble of assists, the forward reached 100 goals and assists for the American side.

Messi now has 66 goals and 34 assists for the Florida-based team in 80 games. He has been in terrific form this campaign, scoring 24 goals in Major League Soccer.

Even in his latter stages of career, he remains one of the productive players and continues to deliver with his sensational qualities on the pitch. Since joining the club in 2023, he has already guided them to two trophies and transformed them into title challengers.

Such has been his impact at the club that he almost singlehandedly drags them to wins and trophies. Despite not defending the Supporters’ Shield this season, Inter Miami are in the MLS playoffs.

Following Lionel Messi’s recent landmark with the club, how does his record compare to Cristiano Ronaldo’s at Al-Nassr?

Meanwhile, Ronaldo’s record at Al-Nassr has set him apart from others in the Saudi Pro League. He has 124 goal contributions, recording 104 goals and 20 assists in 117 matches since joining the club in January 2023.

His most prolific season for the club came when he tallied 35 goals in 31 matches during the 2023-24 Saudi Pro League season. Not only has he been their leading marksman, but he has also elevated the club’s status. However, one thing that has eluded him during his time in Saudi Arabia is trophies.

However, he hopes to end that streak by winning a trophy this season. Let’s compare his goal contribution to Lionel Messi’s.
