Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe is on the verge of reaching a major Champions League milestone as he prepares for his 100th appearance in the competition against AS Roma on Wednesday (October 14) midnight.

The 27-year-old French forward has scored 71 goals in 99 Champions League appearances since making his debut for Monaco in the 2016-17 season.

He is also fifth on the competition’s all-time scoring list with 71 goals, level with former Real Madrid striker Raul. Cristiano Ronaldo leads the chart with 140 goals, followed by Lionel Messi with 129, Robert Lewandowski with 109 and Karim Benzema with 90.

If he features against Roma, Mbappe will become the 57th player to reach 100 Champions League appearances and could set a new record as the youngest to achieve the feat.
