2026 Ballon D'Or Race: Mourinho backs Mbappé over UCL and World Cup winners
TOI Sports Desk
José Mourinho has backed Kylian Mbappé for the 2026 Ballon d’Or, arguing that individual brilliance should outweigh team trophies. Mbappé’s record-breaking World Cup, plus his prolific La Liga and Champions League campaigns, strengthens his case. Mourinho insists the award should recognise the world’s best player rather than automatically rewarding those who win the Champions League or World Cup.
