Mbappe voted for the Golden Ball

Mbappe affirmed that Dembele deserves to win the 2025 Ballon d'Or.

When asked about the Ballon d'Or race between Ousmane Dembele and Lamine Yamal, Mbappe replied firmly: "I choose Dembele, it's clear. Do I need to explain any more?".

However, he was cautious, stressing that things could change very quickly: "We didn't talk about some players, but then they won. Between now and September, a lot can happen."

Mbappe expressed his joy when his former team PSG won the Champions League: "I watched that match in Marrakech, Morocco, with friends and relatives. The TV was very big. Honestly, I was very happy for them. They deserved it. I have experienced every stage of the Champions League, except lifting the trophy, so I understand that feeling. PSG is the strongest in Europe this season. I have never seen them win 5-0 like that. PSG is now the team that every opponent wants to beat."

Even though PSG just won the European championship without his service, Mbappe showed no regrets: "I didn't leave too soon. The story there has come to an end. I have nothing to blame or regret."

Mbappe confirmed he has no regrets about leaving PSG.

Faced with the assessment that his first season at Real Madrid was "empty-handed", Mbappe reacted quite strongly: "Empty-handed? We won two titles (European Super Cup and FIFA Intercontinental Cup). The problem is the choice of words. It is true that Real Madrid missed out on some major titles, but this is still a worthwhile season".

Mbappe is now just one goal away from reaching 50 goals for the French national team. He has also just surpassed Antoine Griezmann to become the number one assister in the history of "Les Bleus" with 31 assists. Currently, Mbappe has 49 goals, only 2 goals behind Thierry Henry and 8 goals behind Olivier Giroud's record.

Sharing more about his new role at Real Madrid, Mbappe admitted: "Number 9 at Real and at the French national team are not the same. I am adapting to this position, but there is still a lot of work to do. Now it is a new squad and our task is to rebuild from scratch. The big goal is the World Cup".

In conclusion, Mbappe shared that since the beginning of 2025 he feels he is on the right track, although not perfect: "I want to win more titles, that's why I'm not satisfied yet. The upcoming FIFA Club World Cup is very important to me."
