Kylian Mbappe will collect the 2024/25 Golden Boot on Friday. The 31 goals scored by the Real Madrid star in Primera Division last season confirm him as Europe’s top marksman. The Frenchman is striding ahead this season with eleven goals in ten games.
Kylian Mbappe is the man of the moment in the world of football. The ‘Clasico’ was the latest demonstration of the Real Madrid star’s form, who will receive the 2024/25 Golden Boot on Friday for his 31 goals in La Liga last season. And he will claim it with ease.
The Frenchman surpassed Viktor Gyokeres in the race due to the ESM (European Sports Media) scoring system. In the big five leagues, each goal is worth two points. Thus, he totalled 62 points compared to the Swede’s 58.5 in Portugal – 39 goals, but at 1.5 each.
Thus, Kylian Mbappe enters the Hall of Fame for this award. Leo Messi has posed with the Golden Boot the most times: six. Cristiano Ronaldo, four. Eusebio Da Silva, Gerd Muller, Thierry Henry, Diego Forlan, Luis Suarez and Robert Lewandowski – among others – twice.
50% of the leader’s goals
The present question is that the ‘Los Blancos’ star wants more. And in the new season, he is writing an even better story. On the eve of November, he has 11 goals after the first 10 games of the season, responsible for, literally, 50% of the goals for the La Liga leaders.
Osasuna, Real Oviedo, Real Sociedad, Espanyol, Levante, Atletico de Madrid, Villarreal, Getafe and Barcelona are on his list. Mallorca were the exception, despite the two goals that were disallowed for the ‘Merengue’ No 10. The clinical striker is making fewer and fewer mistakes and is getting closer to perfection.
Kylian Mbappe will proudly place the first Golden Boot in his trophy cabinet. One that he can adjust on Friday without needing a shoehorn given his excellent performance in front of goal. At this rate, the Frenchman will manage to collect the first pair of shiny boots at the end of the season.
