Characteristics of Mbappe's Ballon d'Or rankings.jpg

‌


In World Cup years, he reaches the podium or comes close to it.
Otherwise, he is around 6th or 7th place..
2018 - 4th
2023 - 3rd
2026 - 2nd
※ The 2022 World Cup was held at the end of the year, so it was reflected in the 2023 Ballon d'Or.
He hasn't made the podium based solely on club (Champions League) performance or the Euros yet.
Will it be his turn for 1st place only when the 2030 World Cup comes around? Wow.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next year.
Since there is no Euro next year, it will be decided by the Champions League!
Personally, I like both Kane and Mbappe, but since Kane is a bit older, I want to see him win his first Champions League title before Mbappe and achieve back-to-back Ballon d'Or wins.
Excluding Messi and Ronaldo, they say the most recent 'consecutive Ballon d'Or winner' was Marco van Basten (1988, 1989) a whopping 37 years ago.
