The last hopes are fading for Kylian Mbappé to possibly lift the Ballon d’Or 2024 trophy.
After a particularly challenging season with Paris Saint-Germain, the captain of the French national team was counting on Euro 2024 to turn things around.
Ultimately, not helped by his fractured nose, Kylian struggled to shine for France in the European tournament.
Scoring only one goal from a penalty and providing one assist, Kylian Mbappé was far from having his best tournament.
Initially touted as a potential favorite for the Ballon d’Or 2024, Kylian Mbappé should seriously doubt his chances of winning the prestigious award.
In the match against Spain, the new recruit of Real Madrid and his national team lacked accuracy in front of the goal, a detail that turned the game against them after France had taken the lead through a goal by Kolo Muani.
With this defeat (2-1), France misses out on the Euro final and will have to wait again to be crowned European champions.
Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappé can truly worry about his ranking for the Ballon d’Or, having missed out on the Champions League and now the Euro.
Jude Bellingham, another contender for the trophy, enters the scene on July 10, 2024, with England facing the Netherlands in the Euro 2024 semi-final.
Following this match, we will have a clearer idea of the true favorite for the Ballon d’Or, following Vinicius and Brazil’s failure in the Copa America quarter-finals.”
