For the 7th time in his career, Kylian Mbappé achieved the feat of finishing in the top 10 of the best players in the world.
Three weeks ago,
Kylian Mbappé was not present at the Théâtre du Châtelet, in Paris, for the Ballon d'Or ceremony organized by France Football. And for good reason, Real Madrid had decided to cancel its visit to the capital to challenge the second place of its striker Vinicius Jr, ahead of Rodri.
Kylian Mbappé is however used to participating in this annual meeting. Since the start of his career, the French international had never missed it. A regularity which matched his consistency in the top 10, since once again, the star of the Blues achieved a flattering ranking, with a 6th place this year, despite the difficult period he has been going through since the second part of the season. last.
Mbappé maintains a significant impact
Top European scorer with Harry Kane, Kylian Mbappé was unable to compete with some of his teammates at Real Madrid since Vinicius, but also Jude Bellingham (third) and Dani Carvajal (fourth) finished ahead of him. Nevertheless, the captain of the Blues was voted for by a journalist in the voting panel.
He is a reporter from the Ivorian site Sport-ivoire.ci. In this month's edition, France Football revealed the details of the votes for this 2024 edition of the Ballon d'Or, and Ivory Coast is therefore the only one of the 100 countries to have placed the French international in first place. Mbappé is ahead of Vinicius Jr and Rodri in this ranking established by the Ivorian media. A consolation prize which tends to prove, if necessary, that the former Parisian maintains a significant impact, even in his down periods.
