When the last gasps of the year 2021 have already been given, now it is time to think about 2022. A year that will be fundamental for the future of Kylian Mbappé Y Erling Haaland. The Frenchman is now free to negotiate his new contract with another club other than PSG. And Real Madrid is the favorite. It is also to sign the Norwegian striker from Borussia Dortmund. Two signings that would give the Whites an unprecedented scoring ability.
Both Mbappé and Haaland have exploited their goalscoring nose in 2021. They have never scored so many goals before. 100 targets have been added between the two. The Frenchman, PSG, was slightly better than the Norwegian attacker. With the Parisians, Mbappé has scored 43 goals in a calendar year. To which must be added the 8 goals he has made with the France team shirt. Haaland, at 21, has had the highest scoring productivity of his short professional career in 2021. 43 goals for Borussia Dortmund, although compared to the Frenchman he has only scored 6 goals for the Norway shirt. 51 and 49 respectively between the two, for a total of 100 goals. His fiercest year. Can you imagine if a club is capable of bringing both together in its lead? They would be almost unstoppable. Madrid wants to do it.
The Silver Ball 2021, the top scorer
Only Lewandowski has managed to score more goals than Real Madrid’s two goals this calendar year. The Pole went up to the number of 69 targets (11 of them with the shirt of the Polish team). It is the third year in a row that the Bayern Munich forward has finished as the top gunner on the planet. It already was in 2019; in a 2020 marked by the pandemic and in this 2021, which has just concluded. The Silver Ball of this 2021 has closed the year in full scoring form. Lewandowski took the baton from Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo and seems to have no limits when it comes to scoring. But the Pole is already 33 springs.
Mbappé and Haaland will be his natural heirs in the future and Real Madrid will fight to the end to bring both players together. As Carlo Ancelotti says they would be “a very strong team”. The madridistas are already licking their lips for seeing the two stars together at the new Bernabéu and rival goals tremble just thinking about it.
