Mbappe became Real Madrid's latest Galactico when he signed from PSG after scoring 256 goals in 308 games.
His searing pace, strength, technical excellence and eye for goal make him one of the best players in the current generation of players. He has scored 12 World Cup goals in just two tournaments, including a hat-trick in the 2022 World Cup Final and a goal in the 2018 World Cup final that made him the only teenager other than Pele to score in a World Cup final.
