Kylian Mbappé continues to rack up awards. The Real Madrid star striker was officially honored with the prestigious European Golden Shoe on Friday, a trophy awarded to the top scorer of the season in the continent's leagues.

Despite a 2024-2025 season in which FC Barcelona collectively dominated, the French national team captain shone brightly. With 31 goals in 34 La Liga matches, Mbappé confirmed his status as an indispensable attacking force.

The award ceremony took place in the solemn setting of the Santiago Bernabéu stadium.

Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez , who was present for the occasion, warmly praised a player who, according to him, "perfectly embodies the values of Real Madrid" .

"It is a huge honor to receive this award. Winning the Golden Boot for the first time in my career has a very special meaning for a striker," said a beaming Mbappé, not forgetting to emphasize the importance of the unwavering support of his teammates.

After a blistering start to the season (16 goals in 13 matches), the former Paris Saint-Germain player sees this award as a powerful source of motivation. "I hope to continue winning these kinds of awards for many years to come, but the main objective remains team titles," he stated. "We have an incredible group, and I believe we can win everything this season."

This individual award crowns the efficiency and consistency of a player more determined than ever to make history with Real Madrid and European football. Mbappé has won his first continental top scorer trophy, but already seems focused on the ambition of a personal double and, above all, a collective treble with Los Blancos .
