“Ballon d’Or? My vote is for Ousmane Dembélé.”

 “Will I vote for Dembélé? Yes. Do I really need to explain? If I had to choose between Yamal and Dembélé, I would choose Dembélé. My vote is CLEAR.”

The winner of this season’s ballon D’or will be announced on September 22nd, at the gala night in France. It will be exciting to see who goes home with football’s most prestigious individual award.
