Julian Quiñones capped the 2025–26 Saudi Pro League season in style, scoring a hat-trick on the final day to claim the league's Golden Boot with 33 goals. His treble also carried Al Qadsiah to a place in the AFC Champions League.
The forward's three goals came in a commanding 5–1 away victory at Al Ittihad. The result confirmed Al Qadsiah's qualification for continental competition, making the final round a memorable one for both the player and the club.
Quiñones edged out Ivan Toney, who finished as runner-up in the scoring charts with 32 goals. Cristiano Ronaldo placed just behind Toney, rounding out the top of the season's scorer standings.
The tight race for the Golden Boot went down to the wire, with the final-day hat-trick proving decisive in separating the top marksmen. For Al Qadsiah, securing a continental berth marks a significant step forward and gives fans plenty to look forward to next season.
The Saudi Pro League continues to attract high-profile talent and deliver competitive football, offering residents and expats across the Kingdom another compelling season to follow.
