Ronaldo has remarkable Real Madrid goalscoring record

Cristiano Ronaldo was at it again this week, scoring his 25th hat-trick for Real Madrid with four goals in the 5-1 home win over Elche.
Ronaldo’s staggering haul of trebles has come in little over five years, after he joined from Manchester United in the summer of 2009, and, with 21 hat-tricks in La Liga alone, he stands one behind the club record holder, Alfredo Di Stéfano.
Real Madrid may have smashed the world transfer record by spending £80m to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to the Spanish capital in 2009, but his goal output since then has shown he was worth every penny.
Here is a rundown of his remarkable goalscoring numbers:
Ronaldo’s Real Madrid goalscoring record in numbers
9 goals in 4 league games this season
264 goals in 254 games for Real Madrid. Raúl holds the record with 323 with Alfredo di Stéfano on 307
186 goals in 169 La Liga games, putting him 10th on the all-time list
25 hat-tricks – three away from di Stéfano’s record of 28
21 La Liga hat-tricks – one behind di Stéfano’s mark
47 penalties
53 Champions League goals
17 goals in the 2013-14 Champions League – a record which broke the previous mark of 14 jointly held by José Altafini and Lionel Messi
