Kylian Mbappe was Paris Saint-Germain’s main attacking force over the recent Ligue 1 campaign. Mbappe finished the season with the most Ligue 1 goals scored (27) and the second-most assists among PSG players (seven).
Overall, Mbappe’s 34 goal involvements ranked the forward at fifth among players within Europe’s top five leagues behind the likes of Robert Lewandowski (48) and Lionel Messi (39).

One could argue that this season was the most complete one of Mbappe’s Ligue 1 career. The French forward took on responsibilities in playing as both a wide winger and center forward throughout the campaign. He also showed his versatility as a goal contributor with multiple key goals scored and impressive goal-scoring chances created for teammates.
Mbappe sure will be among the top favorites next season to finish with the most goal involvements in Europe’s top five leagues, especially if he elects to stay on with PSG.
