It must be recognized that Haaland had an incredible season. He scored a lot of goals, won the Champions League and won the treble with Manchester City. I am sure that he will be one of the players who will regularly be candidates for the Ballon d'Or in the years to come. I wouldn't be surprised if he wins it very soon.

“The same goes for Kylian Mbappe. Kylian Mbappé had a very good season, a spectacular World Cup. He almost spoiled us the final for Argentina with his goals. It seems to me - as I have already said several times - that he is one of the footballers who can win the Ballon d'Or every year, because he is clearly one of the very best players in the world," - L’Equipe quotes the 36-year-old Argentine as saying.

Recall, the annual Ballon d'Or award ceremony was held in Paris (France) on October 30. Lionel Messi, the current world champion of the Argentine national team, received the award for a record eighth time in his career. According to the voting results, the legendary footballer surpassed Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland, who were in the top 3.

Earlier, Lionel Messi dismissed the possibility of his return to Barcelona on loan. The 36-year-old Argentine also questioned the likelihood of his participation in the World Cup-2026.
