At only 24 years old, Kylian Mbappé is already the fourth top scorer in the history of the Blues. Olivier Giroud’s record will eventually be beaten, it’s only a question of time.
Friday evening, Kylian Mbappé became the fourth best director in the history of the Blues. By scoring his 41e and 42e goals in the tricolor jersey, against the Netherlands, the native of Bondy thus equaled then surpassed Michel Platini.
This Saturday morning, in the show “Les grandes bouches du sport”, Pascal Dupraz refused to make a comparison between the two players. “It’s not the same time, not even the same position. One was a conductor, the other a finisher, even if Platini scored goals. Platini was simplicity. From the moment of control, we had the illusion that football was simple”remembered the Savoyard technician on the airwaves of RMC.
🗣💬 “They are incomparable. It’s not the same era or the same position. One was a conductor, the other is a finisher.”

“Mbappé, we know that he will soon be the top scorer in the history of the Blues, and that he will make history. I don’t want to offend them. When there are geniuses like them in France, I don’t want to compare them.” continues the former Saint-Etienne coach. The PSG player will most likely overtake Antoine Griezmann (44 goals in 124 caps), Thierry Henry (51 goals in 123 caps) and Olivier Giroud (54 goals in 126 caps).
