Britain's 'BBC' reported on the 26th (Korean time) that Mbappe won the European Golden Shoe for the first time. Mbappe scored two goals alone in the final match of the Spanish Primera Liga in 2024-2025 season against Real Sociedad at Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid, Spain, on the 24th, leading to a 2-0 victory.
The French national team left Paris Saint-Germain for Real Madrid ahead of this season. He scored 31 goals in La Liga in his first season, beating Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona, 27 goals) to become the top scorer (Pitch).
Mbappe wept this season 'No Military'. Real Madrid's rival Barcelona dominated La Liga as well as Copa del Rey and Super Cup.
However, his scoring instincts were different. Mbappe topped the European scoring list, surpassing Portugal Sporting CP's Victor Jockeres (39 goals) and English Premier League Liverpool's Mohamed Salah (29 goals).
In the case of Jockeres, there are eight more goals than Mbappe. However, joy and sorrow were mixed depending on the point system applied by league. Players in the top five European leagues (EPL, La Liga, German Bundesliga, Italian Serie A, and French League 1) are given two points per goal and 1.5 points for other leagues.

But I had to settle for one goal. Liverpool drew 1-1 with Palace. Salah came in third behind Jockeres with 58 points. Lewandowski ranked fourth with 54 points, and Harry Kane (26 goals in Bayern Munich), who won the Bundesliga for the second consecutive year, ranked fifth with 52 points. Kane scored 36 goals in the Bundesliga last season to win the Golden Shoe.
Mbappe is the third Real Madrid player to win the European Golden Shoe after Hugo Sanchez (1989-1990) and Cristiano Ronaldo (2010-2011, 2013-2014, 2014-2015).
But Mbappe has been a bitter season. Even without Mbappe, PSG, their former team, won League 1 and Coupe de France (France Cup) at the same time. If he wins the European Champions League final against Inter Milan (Italy) on the 1st of next month, he will achieve his first treble.
