French football legend Zinedine Zidane has come up in support of Kylian Muppes following his disappointment in the 2026 Golden Ball event, praising that Real Madrid’s attacker deserved the prize just as much as Harry Kane won.
The former Real Madrid coach spoke of the TV show on Sunday, where he admitted that Mbappre is naturally disappointed that he failed to win the most prestigious individual award in football.
For the captain of the National of France, the second country represents the best outcome in its career in the race, but the trophy ended up in the hands of Bayern Munichu striker, Harry Kane.
Mbappe? He will surely be happy to have returned to the Nationale of France. At the first gathering, it happened as it did, after leaving the team after the first match against Turkey due to injury. He probably wanted to stay with us, but there’s a player who plays a lot, so we have to be careful, Zidane said first.
Speaking of Golden Ball, French legend did not hide the idea that Real Madrid’s assailant had deserved to prevail.
Golden Head? Each has its own preferences. He finished second, and we have to admit it. Of course, he is disappointed because he certainly deserved it just as much as the winner, Zidane said. /Telegrafi/
