Sixth in the Ballon d’Or rankings, Kylian Mbappé has not given up on his goal.

Since his sensational entry into the landscape of professional football in 2017, under the jersey of AS Monaco, Kylian Mbappé has achieved a small feat: climbing into the top 10 of the best players in the world.

The French international striker has his napkin ring

at the table of the most successful players on the circuit. And even after a slower year like this 2023-24 season, Mbappé remains in the elite of world football since the captain of the Blues finished in 6th place in the ranking, behind Rodri, Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham, Dani Carvajal and Erling Haaland.

Can Mbappé win the Ballon d’Or?

Quickly promised to inherit the throne left vacant by Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Kylian Mbappé is going through a difficult period in his career. But the former Parisian certainly keeps his goal in the back of his mind. Two years ago, he again recalled his regularity in the columns of France Football.

I have never left the top 10, he rightly pointed out. This is proof that I am gradually starting to settle into the minds of the jurors. The Ballon d’Or is one of the major events for top players. Now I think I belong to this elite of potential winners. I believe I am credible to claim this award“. An observation that is still valid today, provided that the star regains all his sensations.
