Kylian Mbappe believes his record-breaking FIFA World Cup campaign has strengthened his Ballon d'Or chances. The Real Madrid star won the Golden Boot with 10 goals and became the tournament's all-time leading scorer, but says winning trophies with Madrid remains more important than individual honours.
Madrid: Kylian Mbappe believes his historic FIFA World Cup campaign has put him firmly in contention for the Ballon d'Or, with the Real Madrid forward admitting that playing for the Spanish giants naturally brings expectations of individual honours.
Mbappe heads into Real Madrid's Champions League opener against Inter Milan with his stock having risen significantly after a record-breaking summer with France.
The 27-year-old claimed the World Cup Golden Boot with 10 goals and took his overall tally in the competition to 22, making him the tournament's all-time leading scorer.
"Of course I made a lot of history this summer in the most important competition in sport, but we'll see. I have the feeling that it's a good year for that, but there's still a long time to go, and people are free to vote for whoever they think is the best player in the world," Mbappe said, according to Goal.com.
