MADRID — Former Real Madrid forward Eden Hazard has outlined a clear path for Kylian Mbappe to claim the 2026 Ballon d’Or, insisting that club and international trophies are the final pieces of the puzzle.
Speaking to TeleFoot, the Belgian icon expressed absolute certainty that the Frenchman will eventually be crowned the world’s best player, regardless of this year’s voting outcome.”Mbappe and the Ballon d’Or?
He will win it,” Hazard stated. “He needs to win the Champions League, La Liga, or go far in the World Cup. But he will win it at some point, of course.”
