Kylian Mbappe reached 100 appearance for Real Madrid marking the milestone with numbers that place him among the club’s greatest-ever forwards in their early years at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The French star who joined in the summer of 2024, has already scored 85 goals in his first 100 match across all competitions.

A landmark reached at record pace

Mbappe’s century of appearances comes less than two full seasons after his arrival on a free transfer from Paris Saint Germain. Since then, he has quickly established himself as the focal point of Real Madrid’s attack.

His tally of 85 goal in 100 game puts him fifth on the list of the most prolific starts in the club’s history according to data from Transfermarkt.

It is a return that underlines both consistency and immediate impact in one of football’s most demanding environments.

Only legends ahead of him

The players ahead of Mbappe in that ranking highlight the scale of his achievement.

Ferenc Puskas tops the list with a remarkable 100 goal in his first 100 match during the 1960 /61 period. Cristiano Ronaldo follows with 95 goal, recorded in 2011 /12 while Bahinho (87 goal) & Alfredo Di Stefano (86 goal) also remain just ahead of the French forward.

Breaking into a list dominated by historic names from different eras reflects how quickly Mbappe has adapted to life in Madrid.

Building his own legacy

While comparisons are inevitable, Mbappe’s trajectory suggests he is building a path of his own. His goal return places him within striking distance of some of the most iconic figures in the club’s history.

Cristiano Ronaldo who later became Real Madrid’s all-time leading scorer with 450 goal between 2009 & 2018, set the modern benchmark for attacking excellence.

Mbappe’s early numbers indicate he could follow a similar trajectory if he maintains his current pace.
