Joao Felix: ‘The best player in the world? Mbappe, Vinicius… ‘

“The best player in the world right now? I can name three: Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius [Junior] and… Oh no, only two, in fact,” Joao Felix has told Nude Project, laughing.

“I think one of them will win the Ballon d’Or,” the Portuguese added.

Some Barca fans want the club to give up on keeping the forward after he said that! Is he wrong, though?

While Mbappe hit crazy figures in Ligue 1 and the Champions League, Vinicius massively delivered in big games for Real Madrid as they won the double.

Vinicius Junior is the best-positioned player to win the 2024 Ballon d’Or, followed by Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe. The winner will be announced in late October.
