Kylian Mbappé tops UCL league phase with 13 goals

Kylian Mbappé
Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé has emerged as the standout marksman of the league phase, netting an impressive 13 goals, putting him well ahead of his rivals.

The French forward leads second-placed Harry Kane by five goals, showcasing his lethal finishing and relentless threat in front of goal.

Mbappé’s early-season exploits have already matched last season’s joint top scorers, Raphinha and Serhou Guirassy, who each finished the campaign with 13 goals. Remarkably, he has reached that total well before the league phase concludes, hinting at the possibility of surpassing his personal bests if he maintains this form.

His goal-scoring spree has been central to Real Madrid’s attacking strategy. Renowned for his blistering pace, technical brilliance, and clinical finishing, Mbappé has scored in a variety of ways, from precise long-range strikes to opportunistic tap-ins inside the box. His off-the-ball movement, spatial awareness, and composure under pressure make him a nightmare for defenders.

According to UEFA’s official X handle on Tuesday, the other top goal scorers in the UCL league phase are:

  • Harry Kane (Bayern Munich) – 8 goals
  • Erling Haaland (Manchester City) – 7 goals
  • Victor Osimhen (Galatasaray) – 6 goals
  • Anthony Gordon (Newcastle) – 6 goals
  • Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal) – 6 goals
