Mbappe's PSG exit is made worse by the fact that he is the club's record holder in so many categories
Kylian Mbappe, the French football sensation, has not only captured the hearts of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) fans but has also etched his name in the club's history books by setting numerous records.
Kylian Mbappe's impact at PSG extends beyond his breathtaking speed and goal-scoring ability. Through his remarkable achievements, he has firmly established himself as one of the most influential players in the club's history.
Since joining PSG, Mbappe has become a cornerstone of the team's success, showcasing his extraordinary talent and breaking records along the way. As news of his summer departure from PSG is confirmed, let us look at five such incredible milestones that the French forward has reached in his time as a PSG player.
1. Fastest Goal in PSG History
Mbappe holds the record for the fastest goal in PSG history, a remarkable achievement that underscores his explosive start in games.
He scored this record-setting goal just 8 seconds, latching on to a Lionel Messi through pass during PSG’s Ligue 1 match against Lille on 21 August 2022.
2. Most Goals in One Match for PSG
On 23 January 2023, Mbappe delivered an unforgettable performance against Pays de Cassel in the Coupe de France, scoring five goals in a single match.
This feat not only led PSG to victory against the French minnows, but also set the record for the most goals scored by an individual player in one match for the club.
3. PSG’s All-Time Top Scorer
Mbappe's goal-scoring talent has propelled him to the top of PSG's all-time scoring list, with a staggering 243 goals. This places him ahead of legendary PSG strikers such as Edinson Cavani, Zlatan Ibrahimović, Neymar, and Pauleta.
Furthermore, Mbappe leads as PSG’s top scorer in Ligue 1 with 168 goals, in domestic cup competitions with 37 goals, and in all UEFA Competitions with 38 goals.
4. Most Hat-Tricks in UEFA Competitions for PSG
In UEFA competitions, Mbappe has proven to be a formidable force, tying with Neymar for the most European hat-tricks scored for PSG.
His memorable hat-tricks against Club Brugge in October 2019 and Barcelona in February 2021 in the UEFA Champions League, both away from home, highlight his capacity to perform on the biggest stages against top European opposition.
5. Most Assists in UEFA Competitions
Beyond his goal-scoring, Mbappe has also set the record for the most assists in UEFA competitions for PSG, with 22 assists.
This record shows a side of Mbappe that few are familiar with, which includes his vision and selflessness on the pitch, making him an all-around threat. Overall, Mbappe has provided 93 assists for PSG in all competitions, ranking third in terms of all-time assist providers for the club.
