After the change of the rules of the Golden Globe Awards, the Champions League has more important selection significance, although the Golden Ball Awards first focus on the individual performance of the players, but the bonus of the Champions League champions is more important, and the final four places have not yet been generated, and the media has predicted the 5 hottest Golden Globe candidates. As can be seen, mbappe and Levan's chances are very slim. The final production of the Champions League title can determine the final outcome of the Ballon d'Or.
Domestic journalist Luo Ming said that the Team Newspaper analyzed the five hottest Golden Ball candidates: Benzema, Lewandowski, De Bruyne, Mane and Mbappe. These 5 people are not officially nominated, but given the authority of the Team Newspaper, there is no doubt that they will also be the last 5 hits.
The professional media "Team Newspaper" predicted 5 popular goal candidates, let's analyze one by one, who will be the most likely player to win the Ballon d'Or.
Levan
Levan this season in general, the performance is remarkable, but considering the difference with the state of last season, Levan wants to compete for the Ballon d'Or is probably more difficult, the team, although to help the national team to qualify for the World Cup, but the club's performance is not satisfactory, can not help Bayern to advance to the final four, it is certain that Levan has ended the Competition for the Ballon d'Or in advance, because there are players who are better than Levan, at least so far, the call for Levan to win the award has gradually disappeared.
Mbappe
The importance of the Champions League can be imagined, Mbappe helped Paris in the match against Real Madrid, scoring two goals in two legs, performing well, but the team ended the quarter-finals, and with this alone, Mbappe will lose the Ballon d'Or advantage.
At present, Mbappe is the top scorer and assist king of Ligue 1, and if he first pays attention to his personal performance, he will still give Mbappe's Ballon d'Or award extra points, but it is always a bit far-fetched, after all, in the Champions League final four, there are still players who perform better than Mbappe.
Mane
Liverpool won 3-1 against Benfica in the first leg, the second leg came to Anfield, for the final result of this game, I believe there should be no suspense, Liverpool to advance to the final four is only a matter of time, but Mane's personal data in Liverpool is not eye-catching, helping the national team to qualify for the World Cup, is only a weak plus.
In the Premier League, Mane scored 13 goals, ranking fourth in the top scorer list, while in the Champions League, Mane only scored three goals, if Liverpool can reach the final and win the championship, and Mane can help Liverpool win the championship with his personal super strength, then Mane also has the advantage of winning the Ballon d'Or, and it seems that mane is unlikely to win the Ballon d'Or. Not even as good as Salah, who scored 20 goals in the league and 8 goals in the Champions League.
De Bruyne
It has to be said that the advantage of midfielders winning the Ballon d'Or is not large, and De Bruyne is only one Champions League title away from the Ballon d'Or, in Manchester City, De Bruyne is a trump card in guardiola's hand, and in all competitions, Guardiola will rely heavily on De Bruyne.
If Manchester City can win the Champions League, then it is a matter of course that De Bruyne will definitely become the Ballon d'Or winner this season, without any surprise, it can be said that What Manchester City fans are waiting for is a Champions League winner and De Bruyne's Ballon d'Or.
Benzema
At present, the player with the highest demand for the Ballon d'Or is Benzema, who has played the role of a key gentleman in the last two rounds of the Champions League knockout rounds, and his strength and form are very good. In terms of personal data, Benzema currently scores 12 goals in the Champions League, only one less goal than the already eliminated Levan in second place. It is conceivable that Benzema should have a better performance in the final four.
If real Madrid wins the Champions League this season, there is no doubt that with Benzema's outstanding performance, even if there are no goals in the semi-finals or finals, it will not stop Benzema's golden ball dream. Because Benzema was good enough before the final four, with the Champions League bonus. The Ballon d'Or is none other than Benzema.
