Mbappe has put that goal drought well behind him and has gone on to score 21 goals in 31 appearances for Real Madrid. Ronaldo, meanwhile, scored 32 goals in 35 appearances in his first season .So Mbappe looks to be on track to beat Ronaldo’s first season record. He has bettered Ronaldo by scoring his first hat trick for Madrid in his 19th La Liga game. Ronaldo took 27 games to score a hat trick.
Ruud van Nistelrooy (2 games), Gareth Bale (9 games ), and Emmanuel Adebayor (14 games) incidentally are those who got there before Mbappe and Ronaldo. Nistelrooy’s record will take some beating.
