The debate on the Ballon d'Or is in full swing after the PSG victory in the Champions League. During the gathering of the Blues, this subject was logically put on the table. But Jérôme Rothen did not appreciate that Kylian Mbappé be put at the same level as Ooumane Dembélé during the responses of tricolor players on candidates for the Grail of individual distinctions. “There are two very great French people who may have it today, one who plays Real Madrid, the other at Paris Saint-Germain, I will vote for both”for example had launched Manu Koné.
“Me it annoys me this kind of political sentence, we know very well why Koné and Cherki take this speech. They are young, they do not want to put the captain on the back, and that it is easy to quote Mbappé among the Ballon d'Or, and we also know that Cherki is close to Mbappé, so it's easy to highlight Mbappé who does not deserve to be in the discussion for the Ballon d'Or. Today, he is not in the same courtyard as Lamine Yamal or Ousmane Dembélé. (…) If we ask you, you can be sincere, the lack of sincerity it annoys me. If you don't want to be because it can put you in a door compared to Mbappé, you boot in touch. We all know full well that Mbappé does not deserve to be there ”replied the former midfielder.
