Real Madrid sensation Kylian Mbappe has just won the 2024 European Golden Boot! 🏆⚽
In his debut La Liga season, Mbappe smashed the net 31 times across 34 games, earning the trophy awarded by European Sports Media to Europe’s top scorer. His haul makes him the first French player to lift this award since Thierry Henry rocked the charts back in 2004.
Joining club legends like Cristiano Ronaldo and Hugo Sanchez, Mbappe is now the third Real star to claim Europe’s top marksman prize. The award is based on a points system that gives every goal in La Liga a weighted score thanks to its high competitiveness.
At the ceremony, Mbappe couldn’t hide his excitement: "We have an amazing team and I hope we’ll win several awards this year. The collective prize is the most important one. I think that we can win a lot of things with all the people who are here. It's a great delight to play at Real Madrid. Everyone knows it was my childhood dream, now I'm here, for many years I hope." 🎉
He added, "I hope I'll be able to win these awards for many years and that I'll bring joy to Real Madrid fans who showed me love since the first day. Even before, Real Madrid gave me their love when I played in Paris and Monaco. That matters a lot to me."
With this golden milestone, Mbappe has set the tone for what could be a legendary chapter at Santiago Bernabéu. Stay tuned—this story is just getting started! 🚀
