Kylian Mbappé confirmed that he will not go to the Gala of the Ballon d'Or scheduled for Monday September 22 in Paris. Real Madrid striker, who is among the candidates this year, said he will watch the ceremony on television. For him, the important thing is to help his team win trophies before worrying about individual distinctions. This decision echoes that of the Madrid club, already absent from the gala last year, believing that some of its players had no chance of winning the prize despite their performances.
The Frenchman also expressed his support for his friend Ousmane Dembélé. “I will be happy if he wins the next Ballon d'Or”he said on CBSemphasizing his admiration and friendship for the PSG striker. Mbappé will therefore remain in front of his screen, preferring to celebrate the collective successes of Real Madrid rather than participating in the Parisian ceremony.
