Vitinha at PSG, Adrien Rabiot or Didier Deschamps at the Blues: many voices have recently been heard in favor of Kylian Mbappé in the race for the Ballon d’Or. For the French coach, it would even be “unfair” if the Parisian striker was not crowned on October 30 on the stage of the Théâtre du Châtelet. “I hear a lot that Messi is going to get it. But at the sporting level, it will be played between Kylian Mbappé and Erling Haaland”for his part estimated Adrien Rabiot, therefore excluding Lionel Messi.
However, according to the latest rumors, it is the former Parisian who should add his name to the Ballon d’Or winners. One more time. A new coronation would in fact be the eighth for the Argentine world champion. His victory is in no doubt for the English bookmakers. So much so that its rating is only 1 compared to 9 for the William Hill site. Another name stands out, that of Erling Haaland, who follows with odds of 9 to 2.
The other contenders are much further away, with three players who display an XXL odds of 50 to 1: the Madrilenian Vinicius Jr and the two Mancunians Rodri and Kevin de Bruyne. Kylian Mbappé is even further away, only sixth, with odds of 66 to 1. He is ahead of Harry Kane, who benefits from odds of 80 to 1, then Karim Benzema and Ilkay Gündogan, who complete this ranking with odds of 100 against 1.
