Javier Tebas, the boss of La Liga, threw a wrench in the pond last week by claiming, at the mention of Kylian Mbappé, that Jude Bellingham was the best player in the world.
Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappé will certainly be teammates next season. At the end of his contract at PSG, the crack of the Blues is indeed promised to Real Madrid. And the president of the Spanish Football League is certainly not going to complain about it. Despite some great blunders in the speech: “ This year we have the best player in the world with BellinghamJavier Tebas recently judged with the Portuguese media A Bola. Last season Lewandowski was at a very good level, Atlético has Griezmann… If Mbappé arrives, it will help us to be more competitive and grow even faster. »
So, does the versatile English midfielder compare to one of the best strikers in the world right now? According to statistics, the influence of the captain of the French team in any case is incommensurable with that of his probable future partners. The data noted in this regard by Sambafoot could not be clearer.
Mbappé, a unique performance for PSG
In the 2023-2024 financial year, Kylian Mbappé has scored 31 goals to date, or 38.7% of PSG’s achievements for all players combined. Very impactful certainly on the performances of the White House, Jude Bellingham for his part scored 20 goals, or 24.7% of the banners planted by Real Madrid.
If we compare this performance to that of pure attackers, we can note that the former Monegasque has no rival among the Merengues either. Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo, credited with 12 and 13 goals respectively this season, have scored 14.8 and 16% of their team’s goals. To put Kylian Mbappé’s record into perspective from an even more flattering angle, Erling Haaland at Manchester City has 21 goals, or 22.8% of the Skyblues’ total.
