Winning the accolade of being a football club's top goalscorer is usually reserved for players who stay at a club for the entirety of their careers or the vast majority of it. This was not the case for Ronaldo, who in just seven seasons became Real Madrid's top goalscorer, overtaking the legendary Raul who scored 323 goals in 741 games over 16 years at Real Madrid.

Ronaldo managed to do this in less than half the time and smashed this record in the 2015/16 season. Since then, he managed to take his total to 450 goals, 127 goals more than Raul, placing him head and shoulders above the rest.

Alone this is a highlight due to it being at a club as prestigious as Real Madrid, however, when one considers that Ronaldo achieved this record by scoring more than a goal a game it becomes a truly mind-blowing feat that has never been done before and will most likely never again be replicated in any of the Top 5 leagues.
