In a press conference with the Manchester City coach, when asked about choosing between Haaland and Messi in the race for the Ballon d’Or, he said, “I have always said that the award should have two sections, one for Leo and one for the rest.”
Does Haaland deserve to win the Ballon d’Or? Certainly, we won the Treble, and he scored 50 million goals. However, Messi’s worst season is almost better than anyone else’s best. And he won the World Cup, so what can I say?
They both deserve it. I’d say I want Erling because he helped us achieve what we won. I’d like it, but Argentina won the World Cup. I have always said that the award should have two sections, one for Leo and one for the rest”
Closing on the group’s condition: “Everyone is doing well. No problems. Except for De Bruyne… I don’t know when he will return.”
