At first glance, it may seem that Cristiano Ronaldo has won the award for the best player in the Saudi League for the 2023-2024 season after the distinguished performance he presented with Al-Nasr.
Ronaldo is considered the player who contributed the most goals in the Rushen League, having scored 35 goals and assisted 11 others.
However, the Sova Sport platform, which specializes in numbers, published that Ronaldo is not the best player in the Saudi League, but rather Al-Hilal star Salem Al-Dosari.
Al-Dosari played 27 times, during which he scored 14 goals and made 4 others. In total, he created 43 chances and had a dribbling accuracy of 62%.
Al-Dosari received the highest rating from “Sova Sport” among all the Saudi League players, led by Ronaldo, with 7.9 out of 10.
The platform later published the ideal formation for the Saudi League, and Al-Dosari was the only Saudi player in it.
The ideal lineup for the Saudi League 2023-2024 according to statistics is as follows:
- Goalkeeper: Martin Campana (Riyadh)
- Defense line: Kalidou Koulibaly (Al-Hilal), Andre Girotto (Al-Taawoun), Romain Saiss (Al-Shabab).
- Midfield: Ruben Neves, Salem Al-Dosari, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic (Al-Hilal), Marcelo Brozovic (Al-Nasr).
- Offensive line: Malcolm (Al-Hilal), Murad Batna (Al-Fateh), Cristiano Ronaldo (Al-Nasr).
