Kylian Mbappe has officially joined Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in one of world football's rarest elite clubs after hitting 60 goals in the 2025 calendar year during Real Madrid's draw with Girona.

With that, Mbappé bagged his 21st total goal contribution of the season, pulling him back level with Bayern and England ace Harry Kane, who scored from the spot earlier today to help the Bundesliga leaders to a disappointing draw against bottom-dwellers Mainz.

Real Madrid’s 21st century history is in part defined by Cristiano Ronaldo and his machine-like capacity to rack up goals. Few would have compared Kylian Mbappe’s first 18 months at Real Madrid

Kylian Mbappe is being backed to break Cristiano Ronaldo's record of most goals for Real Madrid in a calendar year, but the French superstar has been told that "nobody will surpass" CR7 in the Santiago Bernabeu GOAT stakes.

There is no doubt that Kylian Mbappe is in tremendous form this calendar year. If it were not for his form in front of goal, Real Madrid would be in a real hole

Lautaro Martinez, Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and Harry Kane are the only four players to have been directly involved in more than 10 goals in each of the last seven seasons in Europe’s top five

A goal further adrift are English pair Harry Kane and Anthony Gordon and Brazilian winger Gabriel Martinelli, the first Arsenal player to score in five successive appearances in the Champions League proper after his sublime curler against Club Brugge.

With four games remaining of 2025, Mbappe currently ranks 10th on this list with 62 goals in total. He’ll need another seven goals to match Ronaldo’s best-ever tally and another 10 if he wants to catch up to Romario.
