Ronaldinho Wants Kylian Mbappe To Win Ballon d’Or at PSG Under ‘Great Coach’ Luis Enrique

The Ballon d’Or is the highest individual accolade granted to a player in the world of soccer. Despite numerous performances, the award can even evade even the best sometimes. Ronaldinho, the former winner, knows how it can be done. And he proposes that Kylian Mbappe can go for it with Paris Saint-Germain under the legendary coach.

The World Cup Golden Boot winner has shown tremendous potential over the years. But somehow it evaded him, with other players beating the 24-year-old to the illustrious prize. However, the former PSG star encouraged him to win it because he sees the potential in the generational forward.

Ronaldinho’s friendly encouragement for Kylian Mbappe

The former AS Monaco player joined PSG after his 2018 World Cup heroics. Since then, the player has undoubtedly been their biggest asset. With that in mind and also with love for his former club, Ronaldinho insisted he could win the award at PSG itself. The 2005 Ballon d’Or winner says that it is possible under Luis Enrique. According to reports, Dinho said, “I hope he will win it. He is a good friend and a very great player. I like his style of play.”As every year, it is very difficult (to win the Champions League). The player also praised Enrique, saying, “PSG has a great coach, very great players, and therefore, everything is possible.”

Ronaldinho also advised the star to win big trophies like the UEFA Champions League. Mbappe has performed tremendously in the last two World Cups but could not win the award. 2018 saw Croatian Luka Modric take the award after winning the UEFA Champions League and the World Cup Golden Ball.

This year was a bit more disappointing, as he finished third in the awards. The player was the highest scorer for PSG in their league title win and was runner-up at the World Cup. But the player is still in search of his first Champions League title.

Mbappe’s hope to win the Champions League with PSG is still on

The future of the France soccer team captain for the club is still not certain. But the forward’s UEFA Champions League title hopes are still on as he is expected to remain for this season. However, the Parisians need to win their last game against Borussia Dortmund to secure a spot in the round of 16.

The player is also leading the club’s scoring record with 17 goals. But ultimately, winning his first Champions League would be the main aim for the star. The player will face tough competition from his rival, Erling Haaland, as the player looks dangerous like he did last season.
