The only one who could still challenge Lionel Messi in the fight for the "Golden Boot" is Kylian Mbappe, who believes that this year the "Ballon d'Or" award will be taken by the Argentinean. Despite being considered the best footballer on the planet, L. Messi has not competed for the "Golden Ball" for four years. However, this season based on goal statistics, the Argentinean practically had no equal. Kylian Mbappe, the leader of the French national team, who spoke with journalists, said that it would be most fair to award this year's prize to L. Messi. "Despite his withdrawal from the Champions League, Messi is undoubtedly the number one," said the Frenchman about the "Ballon d'Or" favorite. "He has already shown that he is the best this year. Of course, the award will be presented in December, but I have no doubts about his chances to win," added K. Mbappe. K. Mbappe could still steal the "Golden Boot" from L. Messi this season, but in the last "Ligue 1" match he needs to score at least four goals.
