By stringing together goals, Kylian Mbappé is already very close to becoming the Blues’ top scorer.
As Euro 2024 begins in Germany, Olivier Giroud is still at the top of the French team’s scorer rankings, at the dawn of his last competition with the Blues (57 goals). He hopes to further increase his statistics and get closer to 60 goals, even if his role will be less important this year and he should have fewer minutes on the field.
If Thierry Henry is still in second position in the scorers’ ranking, he sees the new Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappé getting closer and closer. With 47 goals in 79 caps, the native of Bondy has a much higher goal per match ratio (0.59) than his elder (0.41). Mbappé, on the other hand, has still not scored a goal during a European Championship, remaining silent in 2021 despite four matches played in full. He will surely seek to erase this anomaly for such a prolific player from the first match against Austria. With 44 goals, Antoine Griezmann is the only one in the top 10 also active, and he could also get closer to Thierry Henry.
