It is on September 22 that the identity of Rodri's successor will be known at the Ballon d'Or list. And less than two weeks from the ceremony, which will take place at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, the two main favorites are clearly identified: Ousmane Dembélé and Lamine Yamal. Will the young Crack of FC Barcelona (18) win the bet?
Questioned a few days ago by RTVE on the one who deserves him in his eyes, the Blaugrana winger took everyone against his two idols, Neymar Jr. and Lionel Messi.
“I would give one to 'Ney'. I think he deserves it. The 'Ney' of the time he played at Barça or in Paris, would undoubtedly win it today ”he said.
“I would have liked him to win one, and Messi too, of course, because it is the best in history”he added. Words that make Pierre MĂ©nès jump. “Between Messi who plays Inter Miami and Neymar who, overall, does not play little or little in Santos, to put them favorites for the Ballon d'Or, it's just how to laugh”he swung on his YouTube channel.
“Lamine Yamal has a bit of the sons who are touching at the moment”
“I think that (Lamine) Yamal has a bit of the sons who are touching at the moment, but it may be understandable. When you are 17 years old (he became major on July 13, note) and you are becoming one of the big stars of world football, it may not be easy to manage ”continued the former sniper of Canal Football Club.
And Pierre MĂ©nès to drive the point “A huge bullshit”. The Brazilian and the Argentinian are not in any case in the list of thirty nominees, unveiled in early August by France Football. A pre-selection made up in particular of nine players from Paris Saint-Germain.
