PSG President Reveals Who Deserves the Ballon d’Or, Leaving Messi and Haaland Out

The president of PSG confesses the footballer who should win the Ballon d’Or

Lionel Messi and PSG

The Ballon d’Or will be awarded at the end of October 2023, and the possible winner of the prestigious award from France Football magazine is already beginning to make waves. The two great candidates to win this medal are Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland. However, now the president of PSG surprises with his most recent statements where he shares his great candidate to win this award that is given to the best footballer of the season.

The president of Paris Saint Germain, Nasser Al-Khelaifi, showed his support for his biggest star, Kylian Mbappé for the Ballon d’Or award ceremony, in which he is a finalist and acknowledged that he had problems with the Frenchman but they are completely resolved. Now, he is surprised that the Frenchman is really one of the candidates, but the World Cup final that he lost to Lionel Messi’s Argentina weighs heavily. However, the Frenchman was the top scorer in the last World Cup.

“We have the best player in the world (Mbappé) and, in my opinion, he deserves the Ballon d’Or (…) The problems we had stayed in the family and Kylian is part of that family. “I am proud of what he does, and what the entire team does,” he said to local media. It should be remembered that Mbappe was close to leaving the club this summer, after PSG’s constant intentions to renew his contract, however, he chose to continue for one more season, of course, without extending his contractual relationship with the Parisians.

Can Mbappe win the Ballon d’Or?

It is very difficult for Kylian Mbappe to be the person who ends up winning the Ballon d’Or at the gala scheduled for the end of October. Although Mbappe is one of the best forwards today, in numbers and titles obtained, Lionel Messi and Erling Haaland have a little advantage over him. Mainly because he did not win the World Cup or the UEFA Champions League, something that Messi did.
