Real Madrid's French star, Kylian Mbappé, recently responded to comparisons with two club legends: Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldo Nazário. After scoring twice against Villarreal (2-1) on Matchday 28 of La Liga, Mbappé brought his season tally to 31 goals, surpassing Ronaldo Nazário's record from his first season in Madrid.
With 31 goals this season, Mbappé has already surpassed Ronaldo Nazário's record of 30 goals in his first season at Real Madrid. The Frenchman is now chasing Ivan Zamorano (37 goals), Cristiano Ronaldo (33 goals), and Ruud van Nistelrooy (33 goals).
However, Mbappé remains humble in the face of these comparisons. "They are legends who have left their mark on their era. But in the end, they are just numbers. If I score many more goals than Ronaldo and Cristiano, that doesn't mean I'm better," he said.
For Mbappé, individual achievements are nothing without collective titles. "The most important thing is to help the team and win trophies. Scoring goals is good, but it only has value if we win La Liga, the Spanish Cup, and the Champions League," he added.
These words show how determined Mbappé is to succeed with Real Madrid, not only as a goalscorer, but also as a leader.

With Real Madrid in contention for several titles this season, Mbappé will have the opportunity to prove his worth on the European stage. The upcoming matches in La Liga and the Champions League will be crucial for the club and the French striker.
Mbappé will need to continue scoring goals and inspiring his teammates for Real Madrid to achieve their goals.
In conclusion, Kylian Mbappé responded humbly to comparisons with Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldo Nazário. For him, individual records are nothing without collective titles.
With his talent and mentality, Mbappé has everything it takes to become a Real Madrid legend. Fans of the club can expect great things from their star striker in the years to come.
