Top performer in the Big Five leagues! Mbappé leads La Liga this season with involvement in 20 goals and tops the Champions League with participation in 9 goals.

During the midweek early fixture of La Liga round 19, Real Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao 3-0 on the road, breaking their run of three consecutive draws in the league. Mbappé, who started the match, delivered a solo effort, a header assist, and a world-class strike, producing two goals and one assist to be involved in all three goals.

According to statistics, Mbappé has appeared 15 times in La Liga this season, starting every match and playing a total of 1308 minutes. He has scored 16 goals and provided 4 assists, contributing to 20 goals overall. This not only makes him the player with the highest goal involvement in La Liga this season but also surpasses the total goals scored by 15 other La Liga teams so far, ranking just behind Barcelona’s 42, Villarreal’s 29, Atlético Madrid’s 28, and Real Betis’ 22 goals.

Besides leading in goal involvement in La Liga, Mbappé has also played 9 Champions League matches this season, starting all of them and scoring 9 goals, making him the top player for goal participation in the Champions League during the same period.

On the top scorers list across the Big Five leagues this season, Mbappé leads with 16 goals (including 4 penalties), making him the strongest contender for the 2026 European Golden Shoe. Close behind is Manchester City’s Erling Haaland with 15 goals, excluding penalties; Bayern Munich’s Kane ranks third with 14 goals, including 4 penalties.

With Ronaldo having moved to the Saudi Pro League and Messi to MLS for their twilight years, Mbappé is now arguably the top player in Europe’s Big Five leagues. Compared to Haaland, Mbappé shows stronger performance in high-stakes matches.
