With all the titles under his belt, Mbappe is yet to win a Champions League trophy. Although he does have plenty of personal records in the Champions League, Kingsley Coman had his hands on the trophy. Moreover, he has achieved a rare feat in the Champions League before Mbappe plays against AC Milan later tonight.
Coman scored a goal yesterday as Bayern Munich defeated Galatasaray 3-1 in their Champions League group stage. With this goal, the 27YO is one of the four players to score consecutively in seven Champions League seasons since 2017/18, along with Robert Lewandowski, Antoine Griezmann, and Mbappé, himself.
Coman has been in brilliant form for Bayern Munich this season and has become an influential player under manager Thomas Tuchel.

Coman can relate himself to Griezmann, who is a winger himself. But the other two are pure goal scorers as Coman makes his way to the pantheon of greats in the Champions League. As for Mbappe, the PSG owners and fans hope the Champions League trophy will finally arrive at Parc des Princes.

Can Kylian Mbappe finally win the Champions League like Coman?
Paris Saint Germain owners have again spent a vast amount of funds on rebuilding under Luis Enrique. They lost the likes of Sergio Ramos, Lionel Messi, and Neymar, who left this summer. However, the owners immediately replaced them with Randal Kolo Muani, Ousmane Dembele, Goncalo Ramos and Milan Skriniar. Despite a slow start, the French forward has scored nine goals in 10 matches while recently ending his four-game goalless streak.
In recent seasons, the team has failed at different stages in the knockouts. It has also forced Mbappe to consider a move to Real Madrid. But, the PSG hopes he could put the Real Madrid distraction aside for the Champions League. However, their next opponent, AC Milan, is only a point behind them.
