Kylian Mbappé continues to etch his name into the annals of football history, achieving yet another milestone in his debut season at Real Madrid.
The French superstar has now scored an impressive 33 goals across all competitions, equaling the tally set by Cristiano Ronaldo during his first season with Los Blancos in 2009-10. This remarkable feat underscores Mbappé's seamless adaptation to life at the Santiago Bernabéu and his growing influence on the pitch.
Mbappé's latest contributions came in a thrilling 3-2 victory over Leganés at the Santiago Bernabéu last night. The match saw Real Madrid rally from a 2-1 deficit at halftime, with Mbappé playing a pivotal role. He opened the scoring with a composed Panenka penalty in the 31st minute and later secured the win with a stunning free-kick in the 76th minute—his first-ever goal from a direct free-kick. Jude Bellingham also found the net, helping Real Madrid maintain their pursuit of La Liga leaders Barcelona.
Mbappé's journey to Real Madrid has been a long-anticipated dream come true. After years of speculation and near-misses, the 25-year-old forward joined the Spanish giants on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain last summer. The deal, reportedly worth €200 million over five years, includes a substantial signing bonus and a share of his image rights. Mbappé's arrival has bolstered Real Madrid's attacking prowess, forming a formidable partnership with stars like Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo.
As the season progresses, Mbappé's performances continue to draw comparisons to some of Real Madrid's greatest players. With his sights set on surpassing Ronaldo's debut-season record, the Frenchman is proving to be a worthy heir to the legacy of the club's iconic No. 7 jersey. Beyond individual accolades, Mbappé remains focused on helping Real Madrid secure silverware, with the team still competing in La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the UEFA Champions League.
