Kylian Mbappe is in the verge of equalling one of the football most iconic achievements, as he need just 10 more goals to Real Madrid’s five remaining matches of 2025 to surpass Cristiano Ronaldo’s all-time record for the most goals score in a single calendar year.

The French superstar has enjoyed a blistering first year in Madrid, combining pace, precision and ruthless finishing to deliver one of the most explosive campaigns of his career.

With Blanco still fighting on multiple fronts, Mbappe is expected to play a central role as he attempts to chase down the towering benchmark set by the club’s greatest-ever scorer.

Kylian Mbappe initially faced challenges at Real Madrid, but he has successful transformed his situation, emerging as one of the world’s premier players.

While the Frenchman has scored 53 goals in 2025 with Los Blancos, he has managed to reach the historic figure of 60 goals when adding his goals for France so far this year. With this achievement, he becomes the fourth player in the 21st century to reach this remarkable milestone.

With the impressive scoring prowess, Mbappe has joined the ranks of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, and Robert Lewandowski, cementing his name in soccer history.

Remarkably, the Frenchman achieved this despite the turmoil at Real Madrid, a team struggling to deliver results amid rumoured tensions involving Xabi Alonso in the locker room.

With five games remaining in the 2025 season, he still has the opportunity to enhance his statistics further.

Madrid fans are already buzzling with anticipation, wondering whether the 25-year-old can sustain his current momentum and write his name into the club’s storied history.

The football world now watched closely as Mbappe enters a decisive final stretch of the year.
