Kylian Mbappe has scored 31 goals in his first Real Madrid season, overtaking Brazilian Ronaldo and aiming to surpass Cristiano Ronaldo's remarkable debut-season tally.
Kylian Mbappe continues to silence critics in his debut season with Real Madrid, having already scored an astonishing 31 goals across all competitions. The French striker has faced significant pressure and criticism since arriving in Madrid but continues to respond with exceptional performances on the pitch.
Just 44 matches into his Madrid career, Mbappe has netted an impressive 31 goals, surpassing the legendary Brazilian forward Ronaldo Nazario's debut season tally. He now sets his sights on another iconic figure—Cristiano Ronaldo.
Mbappe's latest contribution came just 44 hours after the exhausting Madrid derby against Atletico, as he scored both goals in Real's away victory over Villarreal. His relentless form has silenced critics, highlighting his pivotal role in the team's pursuit of titles across multiple competitions.
Currently, the record for most goals in a debut Real Madrid season belongs to Chilean striker Ivan Zamorano, who scored 37 goals during the 1992/93 campaign. Second place is shared by Dutch forward Ruud van Nistelrooy and Real Madrid’s all-time top scorer Cristiano Ronaldo, each with 33 goals in their respective first seasons.
With plenty of football left to play this season, including La Liga, the Champions League, and the Copa del Rey, Mbappe appears poised to rewrite club history once again.
