Zinedine Zidane shares his thoughts about ballon d’or in an interview recently after been asked who will win this year Ballon d’Or,

VerseSports reports that the former Real madrid coach in his response said; “I really don’t care about who will win or not. This award lost its credibility back in 2018. Not many people really care about this award anymore.”

“Didn’t you see how they disgracefully robbed Cristiano Ronaldo in 2018? He won the UEFA Champions League, scored a ton of goals, netted a hat-trick in the World Cup, and still didn’t manage to win the award? It’s a joke, right?

He was unjustly denied each and every award that year. He deserved to win all of them, yet they refused to acknowledge his achievements.

He even scored an incredible bicycle kick in the Champions League, and still, he didn’t receive the Puskas Award. Do you guys really take these awards seriously?”
