Kylian Mbappe is rapidly etching his name into Real Madrid's history books, achieving milestones at a pace reminiscent of Cristiano Ronaldo. The French forward has become the quickest player to reach 70 goals for Real Madrid since Cristiano Ronaldo.

Mbappe's 70th goal for Real Madrid came in his 81st game, a superb strike against Alaves. While impressive, this wasn't quite as prolific as Cristiano Ronaldo, who reached the same milestone in just 75 games. Despite taking six games more than Ronaldo to reach 70 goals, Mbappe's achievement underscores his exceptional talent and impact at the club.

Cristiano Ronaldo's 70th goal for Real Madrid occurred in March 2011, during a hat-trick performance against Malaga in a 7-0 victory. In terms of minutes played to reach the 70-goal mark, Mbappe totaled 6,673 minutes, slightly more than Ronaldo's 6,425 minutes. Although Mbappe took a bit longer, he still holds the distinction of being the second-fastest player to reach 70 goals for the club, a testament to his remarkable scoring ability.

Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid's manager, has observed similarities between Mbappe and Ronaldo, acknowledging Mbappe's potential to create history at the club. Alonso noted that Mbappe possesses ambition and impressive statistics, placing him among an elite group. He also highlighted Mbappe's desire to influence others and his contagious energy, qualities he shares with Cristiano Ronaldo.

Mbappe's pursuit of Ronaldo's records extends beyond the 70-goal mark. He is also nearing Cristiano Ronaldo's yearly scoring record at Real Madrid. In 2025, Mbappe has already scored 58 goals for Real Madrid, placing him within striking distance of Ronaldo's record of 59 goals in 2013. With one game remaining against Sevilla on December 20, Mbappe has the opportunity to match or surpass Ronaldo's record.

Scoring 50 goals for Real Madrid is a significant achievement, demonstrating consistency and the ability to perform under pressure. Mbappe reached this milestone in 64 games, becoming the fastest player to reach 50 goals for Real Madrid since Cristiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo reached his 50th goal in just 54 appearances.

Mbappe's arrival at Real Madrid in 2024 was highly anticipated, and he has quickly established himself as a key player. In his debut season, he surpassed club legends to become the Real Madrid player with the most goals in their first season, scoring 39 goals. This included 27 goals in La Liga, 7 in the Champions League, and others in the Copa del Rey, European Super Cup, Spanish Super Cup and Intercontinental Cup.
