Short answer: Cristiano Ronaldo is the most searched Saudi Pro League player on Google worldwide from 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2026, on 100 in Google Trends. Sadio Mané is second at 2.2, about 45 times lower, then Julián Quiñones at 2.1. The index is relative interest, not a count of searches.

This ranking has one dominant name. Cristiano Ronaldo scores 100; the player in second place, Sadio Mané, scores 2.2. Ronaldo is about 45 times as searched as the next name, and if you add the other 99 players in the top 100 together you get roughly 23.5, so he draws more than four times the interest of everyone else on the list put together.

The ranking covers 197 players from all 18 clubs, taken from the squad pages on spl.com.sa, which were read on 1 November 2026. Only players in a 2026/27 squad count. That rules out several names from the earlier version of this page: Neymar, Karim Benzema, Riyad Mahrez, N’Golo Kanté and Roberto Firmino are not in a squad listed there, so they are not ranked. Where any of them went is not stated here, because no official page was read that says so.

What the numbers are: Google does not publish how often a name is searched, so Google Trends offers a comparison instead. Ronaldo is fixed at 100 and each other player is a share of that, between 1 November 2025 and 31 October 2026. Nobody gets a count.

Why does the table have two indices?

With Ronaldo at 100, the other 99 players are crammed between 2.2 and nothing: 35 of them are below 0.1 and cannot be told apart in that column. So the table adds a second reading of the same data. Index (Ronaldo = 100) is the honest picture of the gap. Index (Mané = 100) resets the scale so that No. 2 is 100, which makes places 3 to 100 readable: Quiñones is 95.1, João Félix 75.9, Gabriel Martinelli 74.5, and the bottom of the list, Anthony Moris, 0.5. Ronaldo has no value in the second column because he is above its reference.

Who are the ten most searched players?

1. Cristiano Ronaldo

Al Nassr won the 2025/26 title, their first since 2018-19, with a 4-1 win over Damac on 21 May 2026 in which Ronaldo scored twice; it was his first Saudi league title, won at the fourth attempt. He finished with 28 league goals, short of a third straight Golden Boot (Saudi Pro League). At the World Cup he scored three goals in five matches for Portugal, who went out to Spain in the round of 16 (FIFA). Read more on his career page, or see where he stands among the most followed players in the top 10 most followed football players.

2. Sadio Mané

Mané scored in that title-clinching win over Damac, alongside Kingsley Coman and Ronaldo (Saudi Pro League). He and Ronaldo give Al Nassr the first two places, and with Félix in 4th the club holds three of the top four.

3. Julián Quiñones

The man who took the Golden Boot from Ronaldo, with a hat-trick on the last day (Saudi Pro League). The league listed him as Al Qadsiah’s all-time top-flight scorer with 50 goals when it published its Player of the Season shortlist (Saudi Pro League), and he scored four goals in five World Cup matches for Mexico (FIFA). On the second scale he is 4.9 below Mané.

4. João Félix

Al Nassr’s third name in the top four. The shortlist for Player of the Season credited him with 20 goals, 12 assists to lead the league at that point, and three hat-tricks, a season record for a registered midfielder (Saudi Pro League).

5. Gabriel Martinelli

The only new arrival in the top five. Arsenal announced his permanent move to Al Hilal after 278 appearances and 62 goals in seven years, with the deal subject to regulatory processes at that stage (Arsenal). On the second scale he is 74.5, 1.4 behind Félix.

6. Yassine Bounou

Al Hilal’s goalkeeper is the most searched goalkeeper in the league by a wide margin: Édouard Mendy is next at 16th, and the third goalkeeper does not appear until 43rd. Google’s topic for him is “Bono”, the name he is known by, and that is the one measured.

7. Darwin Núñez

Núñez is on loan at Diriyah from Al Hilal, announced on 23 August 2026 as part of a triple signing by a club making its first appearance in the Saudi top flight (Saudi Pro League). He and Richard Ríos are separated by less than two hundredths of an index point on the first scale.

8. Richard Ríos

Al Ittihad’s midfielder is 0.7 below Núñez on the Mané scale, 55.2 against 55.9. No official fact for this season was found, so the comparison with Núñez is all there is to say.

9. Crysencio Summerville

Summerville scored two goals and set up two more in four World Cup matches for the Netherlands, who went out on penalties to Morocco in the round of 32 (FIFA). He is the third of four Al Hilal players in the top ten.

10. Theo Hernández

Hernández makes Al Hilal the club with four of the top ten places, alongside Martinelli, Bounou and Summerville. Hernández is 31.6 on the second scale, a step below Summerville at 37.0.

Who comes next, from 11th to 25th?

The second scale runs from 25.4 to 10.3 in this stretch. Ivan Toney, 11th, was the third player to reach 30 league goals in a season and matched the league record of four hat-tricks (Saudi Pro League). Rúben Neves, 14th, was credited with the most dangerous passes in the league and 16 goal contributions in the shortlist article. Kingsley Coman (13th) scored in the title game, and Trézéguet (21st) is described by the league as the scorer in Egypt’s first World Cup win (Saudi Pro League).

Al Ahli stand out here: Toney, Mendy (16th), Francisco Trincão, Roger Ibañez and Merih Demiral occupy five of the fifteen places, with three of them in a row from 22nd to 24th. The rest are mixed: Thomas Partey (12th, Al Shabab), Youssef En-Nesyri (15th, Al Ittihad), Idrissa Gueye (17th, Diriyah), Kalidou Koulibaly (18th, Al Hilal), Salem Al-Dawsari (19th, Al Hilal), Iñigo Martínez (20th, Al Nassr) and Mateo Retegui (25th, Al Qadsiah).

Which players fill places 26 to 50?

This block runs from 10.2 down to 3.2 on the Mané scale, so each place is worth very little. The league describes Georginio Wijnaldum (28th) as Al Ittihad’s standout summer signing, with three previous Saudi seasons behind him, and Abderrazak Hamdallah (31st) as a three-time Golden Boot winner and the league’s second all-time scorer (Saudi Pro League). It names Samú Costa (35th) as Al Nassr’s new midfielder, a Portugal international who scored on his debut, and Michy Batshuayi (37th) at Abha as a former Premier League winner.

Eduard Spertsyan (40th) is Al Ahli’s standout summer signing and Roger Martínez (45th) scored 28 times in 50 league appearances, both per the same page. Chancel Mbemba (27th), Nacho (29th), Alexandre Lacazette (30th), Nabil Fekir (32nd), Yannick Carrasco (33rd) and Houssem Aouar (34th) fill out the block with no official fact attached here; their places are a matter of tenths.

What does the bottom half of the list look like?

From 51st to 100th the Mané scale falls from 3.2 to 0.5, and from 66th downwards every player is below 0.1 on the Ronaldo scale. Théo Bongonda (53rd), a DR Congo international, is another new face the league singles out.

Goalkeepers are over-represented at the very bottom: five of the last fourteen places (Milan Borjan 87th, Fernando Pacheco 88th, Adrian Šemper 95th, Marek Rodák 99th and Anthony Moris 100th) belong to goalkeepers, though Bounou in 6th and Mendy in 16th show the position can compete when the name is big enough. In total the 100 contain 35 forwards, 30 midfielders, 22 defenders and 13 goalkeepers.

Which clubs have the most players in the top 100?

Al Hilal have 15, Al Nassr 13, Al Ahli 11 and Al Ittihad 10, so those four clubs account for 49 of the 100. Al Qadsiah have 8, Al Shabab 7, Diriyah 6, Al Khaleej and Al Ettifaq 5 each, NEOM and Abha 4, Al Riyadh and Al Faisaly 3, Al Taawoun and Al Fateh 2, and Al Fayha and Al Hazem one. Al Kholood, an 18th club in the measurement, have nobody in the top 100.

How was this ranking measured?

The data comes from Google Trends, using topics, not plain keywords, so different spellings of one player count as one. It is worldwide web-search interest from 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2026, averaged weekly. Google compares five topics at a time, so the players were measured in groups of five against fixed anchor topics and chained into one scale, with Ronaldo at 100. The result is relative: no search counts exist in this data.

197 players were measured: the best-known players of all 18 clubs from the official squad pages on spl.com.sa, read on 1 November 2026, plus every name in the earlier version of this page. Only those in a 2026/27 squad were kept. Where a player is better known under another name, that topic was used; Yassine Bounou, for instance, was measured as “Bono”. The first index is that measurement. The second is the same data divided by Mané’s value and multiplied by 100, shown for every player after Ronaldo. Places follow the unrounded values, so two players on the same one-decimal figure can sit in either order. Values below 0.1 on the first index show as “<0.1”. The list reflects search interest, not ability, and no precision beyond the index is claimed.

FAQ

Who is the most searched Saudi Pro League player on Google?

Cristiano Ronaldo, on 100 in Google Trends for 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2026. Sadio Mané is second at 2.2 and Julián Quiñones third at 2.1.

How far ahead is Ronaldo?

About 45 times the interest of Mané, the No. 2. The other 99 players combined reach only about 23.5 on the same scale, under a quarter of Ronaldo’s 100.

Which club has the most players in the top 100?

Al Hilal with 15, then Al Nassr with 13 and Al Ahli with 11. Four of the top ten (Martinelli, Bounou, Summerville and Hernández) play for Al Hilal.

Where are Neymar, Benzema, Mahrez, Kanté and Firmino?

Not in the ranking. Only players in a 2026/27 squad on spl.com.sa count, and none of the five is in one. This page does not say where they went.

Which goalkeeper is most searched?

Yassine Bounou of Al Hilal, 6th at 1.3 on the Ronaldo scale. Édouard Mendy of Al Ahli is the next goalkeeper, 16th.

Are these search counts?

No. Google does not publish counts. 100 is Ronaldo, and the second column re-bases the same data so that Mané is 100.
