In Premier League history, only Zola has netted more goals in a single campaign aged 36 or over, with the Italian registering 14 for Chelsea in 2002-03.
Ronaldo helped Portugal qualify for the World Cup over the latest international break, with Fernando Santos's side beating Turkey and North Macedonia in the playoffs to book their spot in the finals.
There remains widespread speculation surrounding the striker's future at Old Trafford, though, with the veteran believed to be considering leaving Manchester in the upcoming market.
