Real Madrid: Kylian Mbappé equals Cristiano Ronaldo's historic record

For Kylian Mbappé, these first 18 months in Madrid will remain significant in more than one way. After his struggles at the start of last season, the French striker got his head back on track to the point of winning this Golden Shoe, still unhoped for a few months earlier. And as is tradition in a World Cup year, the Frenchman has rediscovered his superpowers.

This evening against Sevilla, he scored his 30th club goal of the season, from the penalty spot, but above all his 59th in 2025. A major performance, which allows him to equal Cristiano Ronaldo’s historic record for a Real Madrid player, dating from 2013.
