Ligue 1: Mbappe breaks PSG’s all-time scoring record

Kylian Mbappe has overtaken Edinson Cavani as Paris Saint-Germain’s all-time top scorer.

Mbappe netted his 201st goal against Nantes in Ligue 1 on Saturday.

It was the last goal of the match as PSG won 4-2.

The French champions organised a short ceremony after the game to honour Mbappe at the Parc des Princes.

“It’s very special to be here. The last time I was here was to announce I was staying [to extend his contract], it’s an honour to be here as the club’s top scorer,” said Mbappe.

“It’s a privilege to be a PSG player, to play in this historic shirt, for the biggest club in France.”

Cavani took 301 games to net his 200 goals, while Mbappe needed just 247.

The 24-year-old joined PSG from Monaco in 2017 for €180million.
