At Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé has his sights set far ahead. The Frenchman is determined to follow in Cristiano Ronaldo’s footsteps.

Against Olympiakos (3-4) in the Champions League, Kylian Mbappé delivered a stunning four-goal performance last night. Speaking to the media in the mixed zone after the match, the French striker made it clear that his ambitions are far from fulfilled.

"We scored four goals—top-class team goals—and we’re heading back to Madrid with all three points. That was the target. I’m in great company with Cristiano Ronaldo, Ferenc Puskás, and Alfredo Di Stéfano, but I’ve just arrived here. I still have a lot to achieve to reach their level, but I’m on the right path to accomplish great things," Mbappé stated.
