At 24, Gonçalo Ramos continues to make history at Paris Saint-Germain. The Portuguese striker scored his 16th goal off the bench, equaling Kylian Mbappé (26) as the club’s all-time leading substitute goalscorer in all competitions. A statistic revealed by OptaJean that illustrates his decisive role in Parisian late-game matches.
16 – Gonçalo Ramos scored his 16th goal for Paris Saint-Germain after coming on as a substitute, equaling Kylian Mbappé’s record as the club’s all-time leading scorer from the bench across all competitions. Super sub!”
This record places Gonçalo Ramos in a very special category at Paris Saint-Germain: that of the “supersubs,” those players capable of transforming a match by coming on as a substitute. The former Benfica center-forward built his Parisian reputation on this ability to make an immediate impact, even with limited playing time. At only 24 years old, he already displays an efficiency comparable to that of Kylian Mbappé, who also scored 16 times coming off the bench.
The difference is that Ramos is establishing himself in a squad rich in attacking talent, where he is not always a starter, but still manages to capitalize on every opportunity. This status demonstrates both his competitive mentality and his importance in the rotation, giving PSG a formidable weapon to unlock opposing defenses late in matches.
