How many goals has Mbappé scored in his career? Here is a detailed summary of some of Kylian Mbappe's greatest career goals and assists.

In 2021, the former Wonder kid became the youngest player to score 25 goals in the history of the UEFA Champions League, breaking Lionel Messi's record. In addition, he joined the list of World Cup legends like Pele after scoring a goal in the 2018 World Cup final match between France and Croatia. Speaking to Le Parisien, former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger remarked on the forward's talent, saying,

"I’ve been saying for years there are similarities between Kylian and Pele. He is a good example to follow. Pele played four World Cups and won three of them in 1958, 1962, and 1970. Kylian is only 22 years old, he already played the 2018 World Cup and won it. Nobody realized how lucky France is by having Kylian Mbappe.”

"In the face of this glistening trophy we all become kids again. We all watch this ceremony with the players arriving on the red carpet thinking 'one day it'll be me'. I'm sure many dream of those moments, imagining the stress of waiting for the rankings to be revealed, sitting next to the greatest players on the planet. In fact, the Ballon d'Or awakens our childhood dreams in us. We can win titles, other awards, but this is the Holy Grail."
