Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé has on Sunday joined club icon Cristiano Ronaldo in an altogether exclusive Blancos club.
This comes owing to his exploits in Real’s latest outing.
Xabi Alonso’s troops are currently locked in action, in a La Liga meeting with Girona.
Amid a shaky recent stretch of form, the capital heavyweights found themselves behind heading into the interval, owing to a fine strike on the part of Azzedine Ounahi.
When they needed him most, though, top scorer Mbappé produced the goods once more.
After Vinícius Jr. won a 2nd-half penalty for Real Madrid, the Frenchman stepped up to slot home the game’s equaliser.
And as alluded to above, in the process, Mbappé secured for himself a piece of history.
As per La Liga statistician ‘MisterChip’ on ‘X’:
‘Only two players have scored 53+ goals in official competitions for Real Madrid in a calendar year: Cristiano Ronaldo (5 times) and Mbappé.’
GIR 1-1 RMA (67') – Mbappé alcanza los 60 goles en el año 2025 (53 con el Real Madrid y 7 con Francia).
Solo hay dos jugadores que hayan marcado 53+ goles en competiciones oficiales con el Real Madrid en un año natural: Cristiano Ronaldo (5 veces) y Mbappé.
