## The Playmaker's Touch: Mbappé's Assist Masterclass at PSG

While renowned for his blistering pace and lethal finishing, Kylian Mbappé has also cemented himself as one of Paris Saint-Germain’s all-time greatest *creators*. His vision, selfless runs, and pinpoint service tell a story beyond goalscoring heroics – they reveal an elite assist merchant transforming chances into unmissable opportunities for teammates.

**Examining the Records: A Top-Tier Playmaker Among Legends**

Official club statistics place Mbappé impressively high in PSG’s historic assist leaderboards. He has consistently averaged well over half an assist per appearance across all competitions since becoming a regular starter. Crucially, during the monumental treble-winning season (2019/20), he delivered **21 goals AND 17 assists** across Ligue 1 alone – a stunning double threat display rarely seen. This prolific combination saw him finish as Ligue 1's joint-top scorer *and* second only to Thomas Meunier for assists that campaign.

Beyond single seasons, his cumulative impact is undeniable. By early 2024, he had already accumulated over **100+ total assists** wearing the Rouge et Bleu stripe across all competitions. This places him firmly among the top tiers of assist providers in the club’s modern era, competing statistically with midfield maestros like Javier Pastore and Marco Verratti during their peaks.

**More Than Numbers: The Art of Collaboration**

Mbappé’s assists aren't just volume; they showcase intelligent movement dragging defenders out of position, creating space before delivering sharp low crosses, cutbacks, or through balls. His understanding with Neymar, Messi (briefly), and most recently Kolo Muani and Dembélé has been particularly potent. Whether starting from the left wing or dropping deeper as a false nine, his ability to spot and exploit gaps makes him a constant threat *with* the ball played forward.

His peak assist tally came in the magical 2022/23 season (14 assists in Ligue 1), demonstrating his evolution into a complete forward thinking equally about setting up teammates as scoring himself. Each pass gliding past startled defenders isn't just stats – it’s artistry defining an age of dominance at Parc des Princes. For PSG fans, watching ‘Donatello’ orchestrate attacks is pure joy. As long as he remains, expect those assist numbers to keep climbing ever higher.
