Kylian Mbappe Wins European Golden Boot Award
Rabat – Kylian Mbappe has won this season's European Golden Boot after scoring 31 goals in La Liga and finishing top scorer at Real Madrid. The 26-year-old netted a double in Real's final game of the season, claiming top spot in the European rankings ahead of Sporting striker Victor Gyokeres (39 goals) and Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah (29 goals). Even though Viktor Gyökeres scored eight more league goals than Kylian Mbappe, he still finished second because of the weighted-points system used to rank players. In Europe's top five leagues Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, and Ligue 1, each goal is worth 2 points. Meanwhile, goals scored in leagues ranked 6th to 22nd in UEFA's coefficient, such as the Portuguese Primeira Liga, are worth 1.5 points. Mbappe has won this award for the first time since moving to Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain last summer. He is the first Real Madrid player to win it since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2015 and the first to do so with over 30 goals since Lionel Messi in 2019. He ended the campaign with 42 goals in 55 appearances across all competitions, making him Real Madrid's best scorer in all competitions Mbappe had a solid individual season, but he would have hoped for more team success. Real Madrid managed to win the European Super Cup and the FIFA Intercontinental Cup, but they missed out on bigger trophies. However, there's still a chance for Mbappe and Real Madrid to add another title under their new coach, Xabi Alonso. They will compete in the FIFA Club World Cup, which kicks off in the US on June 15. If Mbappe keeps scoring like this, the summer tournament could improve his chances for the Ballon d'Or. Tags: Kylian Mbappembappe

Mbappé, Gyökeres, Salah – Final European Golden Boot standings confirmed
The winner of this season's European Golden Boot has on Sunday been confirmed. This comes after the final round of Premier League fixtures were played to completion. After Kylian Mbappé's brace in Real Madrid's victory over Real Sociedad on Saturday, Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah was the only player still capable of even joining the Frenchman in top spot. In the case of Salah notching a hat-trick in his side's meeting with Crystal Palace, he would have levelled Mbappé on 31 league goals for the campaign. The Egyptian, however, could only manage a solitary goal, en route to a 1-1 stalemate at Anfield. This means that Kylian Mbappé has officially been crowned the winner of the European Golden Boot for 2024/25. In his first season in Spain, the 26-year-old has finished with 62 points to his name, ahead of Sporting CP frontman Viktor Gyökeres in 2nd (58.5), and the aforementioned Mo Salah in 3rd (58).

Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad: Kylian Mbappe scores twice as Real Madrid win 2-0 in Modric and Ancelotti's final game at home
On May 24, 2025, Real Madrid played their final La Liga match of the season against Real Sociedad, but the focus was never really on the result. It was an emotional night at the Bernabeu as fans, players and coaches came together to say goodbye to two of the club's most important figures,Luka Modric and Carlo Ancelotti. Modric, the most decorated player in the club's history with 28 trophies, is set to leave after more than a decade of service. Manager Ancelotti, who guided Real Madrid to 15 major titles across two spells, is also stepping down. Together, they helped define an era at the club. There were tears, standing ovations and a deep sense of gratitude throughout the night, especially when Modric was subbed off late in the match and the entire stadium rose in appreciation. Santiago Bernabeu pays tribute to Luka Modric and Carlo Ancelotti Luka Modric and Carlo Ancelotti's tifo! 🥹🤍 While the night was full of emotion, there was still business to take care of on the pitch. Kylian Mbappe, chasing the European Golden Boot, wasted no time getting involved. His first effort was denied by Unai Marrero, but he continued to push. Mbappe was eventually rewarded in the 38th minute after Pablo Marin gave away a penalty. Marrero saved the first attempt, but the French forward reacted quickly to bury the rebound, scoring his 30th league goal of the campaign. Real Sociedad had very little to play for, though they hoped to finish inside the top half again. Their only big moment came early when Sergio Gomez went one-on-one with Lunin, but the Madrid keeper came out on top. 🚨 Luka Modrić: 'Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.' 🤍 Mbappe kept going after the break, needing just one more to effectively knock Mohamed Salah out of the Golden Boot race. Marrero did well to stop him again, but in the 83rd minute, Vinicius Junior played him through and Mbappe calmly slotted the ball into the near post. The match ended 2-0, but by then it felt like a celebration. Lucas Vazquez also received an ovation in what could be his last home appearance, while referee Mario Melero Lopez blew his final whistle after ten years in La Liga. A night of farewells, filled with applause, emotions and one last win at the Bernabeu.
