FLICK: MBAPPE WILL WIN BALLON D'OR

Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick has heaped huge praise on Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappé and Insists that the France international attacker will win the Ballon d'Or one day.

Mbappé was a part of the team that faced the German Bundesliga giants in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League clash between the two teams and was also among the goals.

The attacker was in sublime form against the Bavarian at the Allianz Arena in last week's clash, scoring the third goal for the French side as they completed a 3-2 away win against the current Champions League holders, and putting PSG in the driving seat according to the guys at OlyBet, with the French side becoming odds-on to qualify for the Semis on the back of the performance.

After watching his heroics against his side, Flick has insisted that the former AS Monaco man is good enough to be a Ballon d'Or winner and will do so in the future.

Mbappe's goal took his tally to 9 in the Champions League this season and also took him just one goal shy of Haaland's 10 strikes in the competition so far this season. He already has a FIFA World Cup winner's medal he won with France at the 2018 edition of the tournament, and according to Flick, the stage is set for him to clinch the personal award.

The Bayern manager said there are only a few players who can boast of being as complete as Mbappé, given that he's gifted with pace, speed, dribbling skills, and scoring techniques. Flick also added that regardless of where he plays next season, whether Paris Saint-Germain or Real Madrid, the forward will win the Ballon d'Or award one day.

Scoring goals is surely one of Mbappé's strongest traits, and he recently set the record of being the highest-scoring active player in the French Ligue 1 with his goal for PSG over the weekend.
