Eto’o’s 22-Year Mallorca Scoring Record Finally Broken

​In the shadow of the cathedral of Palma, a new legend has ascended to the throne.

For over two decades, the name Samuel Eto’o sat unrivaled atop RCD Mallorca’s scoring charts, a symbol of a golden era.

Yet, on a definitive Sunday in 2026, Vedat Muriqi etched his own name into the island’s history with a brace that took him to 55 La Liga goals.

It was a passing of the torch that honored the past while celebrating a new hero.

In surpassing Eto’o, Muriqi has proved that records are not just meant to be broken, but to be carried forward by those who play with the same fire and devotion as the icons who came before them.
