🔥 Mbappé hits 400 goals, surpasses Messi and CR7, still behind Pelé | OneFootball

This Thursday night, Kylian Mbappé reached a huge milestone: 400 career goals thanks to the two scored by France against Ukraine (4-0).

At 26 years, 10 months, and 3 days old, the Frenchman becomes the youngest player of the 21st century to reach such a high number of goals.

Since Pelé, no one has been as quick as him. Whether counting the 1282 goals or the 762 considered by some, the King reached the mark earlier - at 20 or 23 years old, depending on the statistics considered.

But Mbappé is ahead of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Neymar, who waited until they were, respectively, 27, 28, and 29 years old to reach 400 goals.

For Robert Lewandowski or Harry Kane, it was necessary to wait until they were 30 years old. For Romário or Ronaldo Fenômeno, the milestone came even later (31 and 33 years).

The feat of the Frenchman from Real Madrid is simply impressive.

At this pace, he could reach the pantheon of the greatest scorers in football history.

Could he even reach 1000 career goals? Share your opinion in the comments!

🔎 400 career goals in the 21st Century, at what age?

Kylian Mbappé: 26 years, 10 months, and 3 days

Lionel Messi: 27 years, 3 months, and 3 days

Neymar: 29 years, 9 months, and 1 day

Robert Lewandowski: 30 years, 2 months, and 17 days

An important factor is that, despite being older, Messi reached the mark with ten fewer games than Mbappé.

The great challenger seems to be Erling Haaland. The 25-year-old Norwegian already has 351 goals in professional football.
