Barcelona: Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid's star forward, has downplayed the significance of reaching 100 goals for the club, stating that it's "not that important" as "there will be many more goals."
Mbappe achieved this milestone during El Clasico, scoring a crucial brace that secured Real Madrid's victory at Camp Nou. He reached the century mark in his 116th match for the Spanish giants.
His 100 goals for Real Madrid are distributed across various competitions: 67 in La Liga, 25 in the Champions League, four in the Copa del Rey, two in the Club World Cup, one in the UEFA Super Cup, and one in the Spanish Super Cup.
Reflecting on the achievement, Mbappe said, "I'm very happy. Everyone knows that I like scoring goals and helping the team in that way. But I think this is just a detail because the most important thing is the team’s victory and the group effort. This victory will give the group a lot of confidence, and there will be many more goals, so it’s not that important."
He further emphasized the team's collective effort: "The protagonist of the match is the team and the group because we knew we had to play a strong game, but also a team game. We prepared well in the last few matches because we won and played well. We came in with a good mindset, and we gave it our all."
Since opening his Real Madrid account in the UEFA Super Cup final against Atalanta in the 2024/25 season, Mbappe has consistently been a top performer. He has won the 2024/25 Golden Boot and two Pichichi Trophies (2024/25 and 2025/26), in addition to being the top scorer in the last Champions League. In 2025, he equalled Cristiano Ronaldo's record of 59 goals for Real Madrid in a calendar year, and also became the all-time top scorer in the World Cup with 22 goals for France.
