When questioned about his personal goal-scoring ambitions for the new season, the 2018 World Cup winner opted for a pragmatic approach.

Rather than setting a specific goal tally, Mbappe emphasised the importance of focusing on team success over individual statistics.

"How many goals do I want to score this season? I learned that setting targets like this is not beneficial. I just want to win," the 25-year-old stated, as quoted by Madrid Zone.
