Ronaldo tells Real Madrid: Forget Messi, I will be Pichichi this year
The Galactico star has struggled this season, missing four games to start the League campaign after being suspended for pushing a referee.
He has only managed one goal in league action so far this season, while rival Lionel Messi has 12. Real have generally struggled, and are eight points short of their rivals.
Coach Zidane even told media yesterday that C-Ron would start scoring again now that he’s providing assists, helping Marco Asensio score against Las Palmas at the weekend.
​According to Radio MARCA's El Transistor programme, Ronaldo assured the entire Real Madrid squad that he would still outscore Messi, and has made a bet with his team-mates on whether he will be the Pichichi by the end of the season, though the exact details are still unknown.
He recently angrily told reporters to “go on google” to check his stats.
