In the 2025-26 season, Real Madrid striker Mbappe showed an extremely good performance. The Frenchman scored 9 goals in La Liga and 5 goals in the Champions League, and continued to dominate the French national team. "Marca" took stock of two impressive records that the 26-year-old Mbappe is expected to break.

First of all, Mbappe may surpass Giroud and become the top scorer in the history of the French national team. Currently, Mbappe has scored 53 goals and Giroud has 57 goals. Mbappe scored again against Azerbaijan and looks likely to achieve that goal ahead of next summer's World Cup.

Secondly, Mbappe is expected to become the top scorer in the history of the World Cup next summer. In the two World Cups in 2018 and 2022, he has scored 12 goals and performed well in the 2018 final to help France win the championship. In that final, he scored three goals and scored one penalty in the penalty shootout, finishing with eight goals.

In the World Cup historical scorer list, German star Miroslav Klose leads the way with 16 goals, followed by Ronaldo (15 goals), Gerd Muller (14 goals), Messi and Fontaine (13 goals each), and Mbappe and Pele (12 goals each). If he scores 5 more goals, Mbappe will be at the top of the list. In addition, due to the expansion of this World Cup, Mbappe will have more opportunities to increase his goal tally.

Although Messi is also chasing this goal, the Argentinian only has one last chance left, and Mbappe still has at least one World Cup to work hard for. As captain of France, Mbappe is the youngest goalscorer in a World Cup final since Pele in 1958.

Mbappe is also moving towards the top five scorers in the history of the Champions League. Currently ranked fifth is Raul, with a total of 71 goals. Although it is almost impossible to surpass superstars like Ronaldo and Messi, Mbappe continues to set his own records.
