Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe secured his second consecutive 'Pichichi' trophy after scoring against Athletic Bilbao in the final round of the Spanish championship. With this achievement, the French star has matched a rare record in La Liga that only Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi have managed in the last 38 years. This is reported by Goal.com .
At the end of the season, Kylian Mbappe won the top scorer race with 25 goals. He surpassed Mallorca forward Vedat Muriqi (23 goals) and Osasuna representative Ante Budimir (17 goals). Barcelona players Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal finished the season with 16 goals each. Additionally, Mbappe became the player who created the most danger in the league with 63 shots.
Mbappe became the first player to defend this award since Cristiano Ronaldo, who was the top scorer for Real Madrid in consecutive years in 2014 and 2015. After scoring 31 goals last season, the forward demonstrated his high level again this year. In La Liga history, only a few legends, including Lionel Messi, have shown such consistency.
The final game of the season at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium was also remembered for emotional farewells. Dani Carvajal and David Alaba ended their careers at the Madrid club and said goodbye to the fans. Although the team could not win any trophies this season, Mbappe's personal achievements serve as an important foundation for the club's future plans.
Now, the attention of Real Madrid fans is focused on a new era. Jose Mourinho is expected to return to the team as head coach. The Portuguese specialist faces the task of finding a balance between Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior and leading the team to major victories again.
