  1500 goals for Real Madrid

  Cristiano Ronaldo has long surpassed Raul (323 goals) as Real Madrid's all-time top scorer. The Portuguese has hit an astonishing 450 goals in just 438 games for Los Blancos and if he stays at the Santiago Bernabeu, his next target will be to reach 500 strikes for the Spanish side. He could even achieve the feat next season.

  2A fifth European Golden Shoe

  This one may be more difficult because Ronaldo is resting more often in the league than he used to in the past. However, if he can finish as the continent's top league scorer next season, Cristiano will equal Messi's record of winning the European Golden Shoe on five separate occasions. Currently he has four (three with Real Madrid and one from his time at Manchester United).

  3Di Stefano's Clasico goals record

  Ronaldo's goal against Barcelona in the 2-2 draw at Camp Nou in La Liga in April saw the Portuguese draw level with Real Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stefano on 18 goals in the famous fixture. Providing he stays with Los Blancos, his next Clasico goal will make him Madrid's top scorer versus Barca, although he is some way short of Messi's total of 26.

  4Top trophy winner at Real Madrid

  Cristiano currently has 16 trophies at Real Madrid: four Champions League crowns, the Club World Cups, three UEFA Super Cups, two Ligas, two Copas del Rey and two Spanish Supercopas. That tally is impressive, but still leaves him some way short of Paco Gento's 23 trophies for Los Blancos. He is also three behind current team-mate Sergio Ramos, although he has won more than the defender overall at club level, having claimed nine trophies at Manchester United.
