DBasia.news – Chelsea legend Didier Drogba was just decided to retire. He chooses the French striker in Paris Saing-Germain, Kylian Mbappe, as the favorite candidate to win the 2018 Ballon d’Or.
“It would be really nice to see Kylian Mbappe win it. It would be refreshing,” Droga said.
But, the winner of two Premier League Golden Boot admits Ronaldo must be taken into consideration. Apparently, the 33-year-old striker is still performing consistently after moving to Juventus in summer 2018.
“But Ronaldo is still there, he’s still a machine. He won all these Champions League trophies, changed leagues to go to Juventus, and he’s scoring goals there. The man is just unbelievable,” Drogba added.
Indeed, Ronaldo and Messi are listed in the nominees. However, rumors said that both of them won’t be in the top-3 considering the talented rivals besides Mbappe.
Real Madrid midfielder, Luka Modric, is also rumored to be the winner. The Croatian player has proved his capability by achieving the UEFA Men’s Player of the Year and Best FIFA Men’s Player 2018 awards.
