Jonathan David has made history at Lille as he becomes the first player to score 20 goals in consecutive seasons in Ligue 1.

David, who joined Lille from Dynamo Kiev last summer, had already scored 19 goals in his debut season with the club before surpassing that mark this season. He has now netted 20 goals in two consecutive campaigns, becoming only the second player in French top-flight history to achieve such a feat after Thierry Henry.

The forward's impressive form has not gone unnoticed and he has been named the Ligue 1 Player of the Month for September and October. His goal-scoring exploits have also helped Lille maintain their position at the top of the table, sitting just one point behind leaders Paris Saint-Germain.

David's achievements come at a crucial time for Lille, who are currently in the midst of a run of form which has seen them win four of their last five games. The striker's consistent output has been a major factor in this resurgence, and it will be interesting to see if he can continue his impressive form into the final months of the season.

For David himself, achieving such a remarkable feat is a testament to his hard work and dedication to the game. It is a milestone that few players can claim and one that will no doubt serve as a source of inspiration for those looking up to him in the future.

Overall, Jonathan David's achievement is a significant moment in the history of Ligue 1 football, and one that should be celebrated by fans and players alike. With his performances continuing to impress, it seems likely that we will see much more from this talented forward in the coming years.
