'He did everything to his best': Real Madrid fans weigh in on whose first season left a bigger mark – Bellingham or Mbappé

As the 2024–25 season concludes, Real Madrid fans are actively debating who had the more impactful debut season: Jude Bellingham or Kylian Mbappé.

Both players delivered remarkable individual performances, but their contributions differed in nature and timing.

JiteshSR4: “100% Jude. His clutch goals in the first half season alone sealed the la liga for us. Mbappe despite having the goals, has had a lesser overall impact in our season.”

Ok-Recommendation925: “Jude far and away, he won his first UCL (for himself and with us) at Wembley, in his first season. Bro lived up to his price tag.”
