Mbappé Advocates for Ballon d'Or Return to Real Madrid

Kylian Mbappé, currently with Real Madrid after leaving Paris Saint-Germain, expressed his wish for the Ballon d'Or to return to the club, stating it would provide supporters with another reason to celebrate. In an interview with Diario AS on Thursday, he said, “I really want the Ballon d’Or to return to Real Madrid.

It needs to come back to the Bernabéu, to the Madridistas, to return for all those people and give them something to be excited about. They deserve it more than anyone.” Mbappé also commented on his own prospects for winning the award, asserting that his performances on the pitch should be the primary indicator of his worthiness.

He stated, “In my opinion, this is a good year to win it. My feet are my best advocates, more so than anything I might say!” Additionally, he praised Barcelona teenager Lamine Yamal, acknowledging his talent and wishing him a successful career despite the rivalry between the clubs.
