Kylian Mbappé is a French professional footballer who has represented the France national team as a forward since his debut in 2017. Over the course of 107 appearances, he has scored 67 goals, making him the country's current all-time record goalscorer. In addition to the scoring record, Mbappé holds the distinction of being the first player to register over 100 goal involvements (goals and assists) for the French men's national team.
Mbappé made his debut appearance for France on 25 March 2017, during a 2018 World Cup qualifying match against Luxembourg; at just 18 years and 89 days old, he was the youngest player to represent Les Bleus since Maryan Wisniewski in 1955. On 31 August 2017, he scored his first international goal in a 4–0 win against the Netherlands.
Mbappé scored four goals at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, his debut international tournament, including one in the final against Croatia, as France won their second world title. Mbappé also became the first teenager to score in a World Cup final since Pelé in 1958. He was the top scorer at the 2022 World Cup with eight goals, including a hat-trick in the final against Argentina, the first hat-trick in a World Cup final since Geoff Hurst in 1966. It also made him the fifth player to score in two finals and only the second to score in consecutive finals, after Brazilian striker Vavá did so in 1958 and 1962. Mbappé scored ten goals at the 2026 World Cup, becoming the first player to reach double figures in a single edition of the competition since Gerd Müller in 1970, as well as the first player ever to win the World Cup Golden Boot twice.
Mbappé has scored two other hat-tricks: four goals against Kazakhstan in November 2021, and three goals against Gibraltar in November 2023, with the latter hat-trick coming in a record-breaking 14–0 victory. Out of all his opponents, he has scored the most against the Netherlands, with six goals against the side. Mbappé has scored a record 22 goals in the FIFA World Cup, one in the UEFA European Championship, ten in the UEFA Nations League, eleven in FIFA World Cup qualification and twelve in UEFA European Championship qualification. The remainder of his goals, eleven, have come in friendlies. His most productive calendar years in terms of international goals were 2022 and 2026, when he scored twelve goals in thirteen matches for France in both instances.
Mbappé scored his 50th goal for France on 8 June 2025 in a UEFA Nations League win against Germany, becoming the third player to hit the landmark, after Thierry Henry and Olivier Giroud, and the fourth youngest European overall. His next goal, a penalty in a World Cup qualifier against Ukraine on 5 September 2025, saw him draw level with Henry. Four days later, he surpassed Henry into second place when he scored against Iceland. On 16 June 2026, Mbappé scored a brace against Senegal in France's World Cup opening match, reaching 58 international goals and overtaking Giroud as the nation's all-time top scorer. Six days later, he scored another brace against Iraq in France's second World Cup game to match the 16 goal-tally of Germany's Miroslav Klose in the competition. Mbappé's two goals against England on 18 July brought his overall tally in the competition to 22 across three editions, seeing him overtake Lionel Messi as the all-time World Cup leading scorer.
