Mbappe clearly towers over Messi and Ronaldo

Kylian Mbappe (22) is often mentioned in the same breath as Lionel Messi (33) from FC Barcelona and Cristiano Ronaldo (36) from Juventus Turin. Because the Paris Saint-Germain striker is not in the same age group as the two world footballers, comparisons are difficult to make.

How good Mbappe will be in ten to twelve years, and what successes and records he has accumulated by then, cannot be clearly defined. But the fact is: The 22-year-old Paris Saint-Germain superstar surpassed his colleagues Messi and Ronaldo in the statistics when they were also so young.

Mbappe both in the premier class …

Equated to the age of 22 years and 85 days, Mbappe made 42 appearances in the Champions League, scoring 25 goals and preparing 16 goals. Up to this age, Messi only appeared 34 times in the premier class, scored 17 goals and gave 7 assists. Ronaldo, on the other hand, made only 29 appearances, scored a measly three times and only gave six assists. Mbappe is among these from Sky the clear winner.

… as well as better in league competition

But not only on the international stage, but also in national competition, Mbappe depends on the two stars who are out and about for Juventus Turin and FC Barcelona today. The French international has made 141 appearances in Ligue 1 so far, sinking the ball 98 times into the opposing goal net. Ronaldo had just scored 34 goals in 127 games in Europe’s top 5 leagues in Mbappe’s age group, Messi lagged behind with 110 competitive games, at least 55 goals at the time. Mbappe therefore has at least eleven years to improve the comparisons even further in his favor.
