PSG history · 2017-2024
Kylian Mbappé, PSG's all-time top scorer
Arriving in 2017, Kylian Mbappé built over seven seasons a major chapter in Paris Saint-Germain's history, becoming the club's all-time top scorer before leaving on a free transfer to Real Madrid in the summer of 2024.
A young prodigy who makes his mark
Signed in 2017, Kylian Mbappé joined Paris Saint-Germain on the cusp of a career that was already widely anticipated. From his first seasons he imposed his speed, technique and goalscoring instinct, gradually establishing himself as the club's offensive reference. His trajectory in Paris is marked by consistent performances and an ability to decide important matches.
A historic record
Over the seasons, and continuously between 2017 and 2024, Mbappé climbed the statistical milestones that led him to become PSG's all-time top scorer. This record, achieved at the end of seven seasons wearing the Paris shirt, crowns a longevity and efficiency rarely matched in the club's recent history.
Titles and collective honours
During his time at the club, Mbappé won six Ligue 1 titles, contributing decisively to those successes. Beyond domestic titles, he took part in the club's European campaigns and remained one of the key players in major competitions, often shouldering the attacking responsibility in crucial moments.
Role and influence on the collective
His profile evolved over the seasons: from a dynamic young forward he became a natural leader, on the pitch as well as off it. His relationships with teammates, his adaptation to different managers and his involvement in offensive phases made him a cornerstone of Parisian tactics. Mbappé also stood out for his ability to operate in several positions across the front line, bringing mobility and finishing.
Free transfer to Real Madrid
In the summer of 2024, after seven seasons in Île-de-France, Mbappé left the club for Real Madrid on a free transfer. This move marks the end of an important chapter for PSG and opens a new page in the player's career, who now commits to a different club and league.
Assessment and legacy
Mbappé's sporting record at PSG goes beyond mere numbers: he leaves behind a legacy built on individual performance and collective conquest. Having become the club's top scorer, he inscribes his name in supporters' memories and in the club's annals. His time in Paris has left a lasting mark on the team's offensive identity and set a benchmark for future generations.
