His clubs, in this archive

The archive covers 9 of the seasons Cristiano Ronaldo spent at Real Madrid Club de Fútbol, 2009/10 to 2017/18. Real Madrid Club de Fútbol won the La Liga twice in that span and finished in the top four nine times, averaging 90 points a season.

The single covered season at Manchester United F.C. is 2021/22, when they finished 6th of 20 on 58 points. Those placings are recalculated from the individual results rather than copied from a table, so they can be read against any other club on this site.

Only the seasons this archive holds are listed — it begins in 2000/01 and covers league matches in the five competitions named above, so a career that started earlier or ran through other leagues shows a gap here rather than a blank.

How this page is put together

The career table above is the structured record held on Wikidata under a public-domain licence, read once and cached, not queried while you are reading. The player is bound to that record by date of birth rather than by name: a name search returns the wrong Klose and three different Robinhos, and a page carrying somebody else’s links cannot afford that.

Compare any two clubs he played for with the head-to-head tool, or read the records these seasons feed into.
