THE BIGGER PICTURE
Having started at Monaco, Mbappe has spent the majority of his career so far at PSG, where he spent seven seasons and became the club's all-time top scorer with 256 goals in 308 games. Last summer, he made a highly-anticipated move to Real Madrid on a free transfer, where he is just two goals away from breaking the record for most goals scored in a debut season for the club.
