Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo may have set most of the Champions League’s records, but the Argentine and the Portuguese trail Kylian Mbappewhen it comes to goals scored before their 21st birthdays.
Only 20 years and 54 days old, the Frenchman already has 14 goals – 10 of which have come away from home – in the tournament after 24 matches.
Looking at how the all-time top scorers of the competition were doing at his age, nobody even comes close.
