The former OM coach is categorical: beating the goals record set by Cristiano Ronaldo is impossible, even for the young French sensation.

Kylian Mbappé crossed the 300 career goal mark on Saturday evening, during the French team’s victory against Gibraltar (14-0). At 24 years and 333 days, the Paris Saint-Germain striker becomes the earliest player to reach this milestone.

The Bondynois is ahead of the two other sacred monsters of modern football, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Indeed, at the same age, the Argentinian had scored 274 goals and the Portuguese 158. The five-time Ballon d’Or, who broke the record for career goals (865 goals) last November, reached the symbolic bar of 300 goals at the age of 27 years and 3 months.

However, Rolland Courbis, sports consultant, believes that the 2018 world champion will not be able to equal CR7’s record.

“Mbappé left with the idea of ​​breaking all records. But Ronaldo’s record is simply impossible to beat. Even for Mbappé »he judged on RMC.

And to add: “Cristiano Ronaldo at the start of his career, he was not a goalscorerrecalled the former AC Ajaccio coach. He was someone who dribbled, accelerated and caused problems for all defenses. It was only later that we started to count his number of goals. » The bets are open.
