Mbappé Receives First European Golden Shoe at Bernabéu Ceremony

His 31 La Liga goals outranked higher totals elsewhere due to the award’s league weighting.

Overview

Real Madrid hosted the presentation at the Santiago Bernabéu on Friday with teammates, coach Xabi Alonso, president Florentino Pérez, and his father Wilfrid in attendance.
Mbappé finished the 2024–25 league season with 31 goals for Madrid, edging Viktor Gyökeres, who scored 39 in Portugal, in the Golden Shoe points table.
It is the first Golden Shoe of Mbappé’s career and the first by a Madrid player since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2015.
In his remarks, he thanked teammates, described playing for Real Madrid as a dream, and said he hopes to win the prize again next season.
He has begun the current campaign in prolific form, with reports listing 11 La Liga goals in 10 matches and 17 in 16 across all competitions.
