IIn his historic nine seasons at Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo has not only become one of the club’s greatest idols, but also set some impressive records along the way.
However, one of them could be replaced in a few years with the arrival of Kylian Mbapp.

The French striker made headlines again with his brace against Talavera in the Copa del Rey round of 32.
Real Madrid won the match 3-2, with Kylian converting a penalty in the 41st minute and adding another in the 88th minute. Manuel Farand Stipovic scored Real Madrid’s other goal. Talavera was scored by Nahuel Arroyo in the 80th minute and Gonzalo Di Renzo in the 90+1 minute.
However, the win not only meant a second consecutive win, but also put Mbappu just one goal away from making history for the club.
The truth is that before leaving Real Madrid in the 2017-2018 season, the current Portugal captain wore the Merengue shirt in 2013 and managed to score 59 goals in one calendar year. And now, with two recent goals, Kylian has already scored a total of 58 goals for the club this year. Therefore, Mbappu needs one more goal to equal his childhood idol, or two more to surpass him and go down in the club’s history as the record holder.
But time could be against him. Real Madrid only have one game left on their calendar to end the year. Mbapp’s last chance will be on the 18th in the first round of LaLiga against Sevilla.
The match will take place on Saturday, December 20th at their home stadium, the Santiago Bernabé Stadium. Will Killian reach this milestone?
