Real Madrid: Kylian Mbappé named player of the season!

A rollercoaster season for Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid. Arriving with great fanfare from PSG, the Franco-Cameroonian prodigy aimed to make a big impression in his debut La Liga campaign.

However, collectively, the results fell short of expectations: beaten by FC Barcelona in the title race and knocked out in the Champions League quarterfinals by Arsenal, the Madrid side closes the 2024-2025 season without a single major trophy.

Mbappé, a brilliant season despite disappointment

Despite this setback, Mbappé shone on an individual level. With 42 goals and 4 assists in 55 matches across all competitions, he was the main attacking force for Los Merengues, delivering one top performance after another.

His influence on the pitch was obvious to everyone—fans and club observers alike.

So it came as no surprise when the former Parisian was named Real Madrid’s “player of the season.” This honorary title recognizes his impact and consistency, bringing a touch of satisfaction to a year filled with collective regrets.

For Mbappé, it’s a successful first step in the famous white jersey, while he waits for even greater triumphs in the seasons to come.
