Kylian Mbappe, the captain of the French national football team and a star player for Real Madrid, has expressed his belief that he will be the top goal-scorer at the FIFA World Cup 2026, surpassing both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. In a recent Instagram football challenge, Mbappe chose Ronaldo over Messi when asked to pick between the two legends. However, he confidently selected himself as the leading scorer, showcasing his ambition ahead of the tournament. Mbappe also endorsed his Real Madrid teammate Vinicius Jr. to outscore Harry Kane and Lamine Yamal. The upcoming World Cup holds significant emotional weight for Mbappe, especially after his impressive performance in the 2022 final, where he scored a hat-trick but could not secure victory against Argentina. As he prepares for the 2026 tournament, Mbappe has already netted 12 goals in his World Cup career and aims to break Miroslav Klose's record of 16 goals. The tournament will begin on June 16, with France competing in Group I alongside Senegal, Iraq, and Norway.
