Kylian Mbappe continues to leave his mark at Real Madrid, with his recent double against Leganes playing a pivotal role in securing a 3-2 victory for Los Blancos.
His remarkable form has allowed him to match Cristiano Ronaldo’s tally of 33 goals scored during their respective debut seasons at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Achieving such a feat highlights just how quickly the Frenchman has adapted to life at Real Madrid and how effectively he has cemented himself as a reliable goalscorer.
Mbappe’s recent scoring spree has been particularly impressive. Over his last two matches, he has netted four goals, with two braces coming against Villarreal and Leganes.

More records to match

This scoring run has helped propel him up a prestigious list of debut-season scorers at Real Madrid, a list that continues to be led by Ivan Zamorano, who scored 37 goals in 45 matches in his debut season.
In terms of direct comparison, Mbappe’s 33 goals have come in the same number of matches as Ronaldo Nazario, who also scored 33 goals during his first season with the club.

However, Cristiano Ronaldo managed to reach his total of 33 goals in 10 fewer matches, highlighting the Portuguese star’s efficiency during his initial season at the club.

A look at other records

Mbappe’s goal-scoring exploits have also placed him level with Dutch striker Ruud Van Nistelrooy, who scored 33 goals across 47 matches during his first season with Real Madrid.
Meanwhile, Brazilian legend Ronaldo Nazario scored 30 goals in 40 matches, further emphasising how Mbappe’s output stacks up against some of the most prolific strikers in the club’s history.

The fact that Mbappe is already drawing comparisons to such celebrated names underlines his importance to Real Madrid’s attack.
As the season progresses, the Frenchman will undoubtedly aim to surpass these impressive benchmarks and continue establishing himself as one of the most influential players in the current squad.
