Karim Benzema, the ace of Real Madrid who won La Liga and the UEFA Champions League last season, is a strong candidate for the Ballon d’Or in 2022, and it would be a “scandal” if he misses out on the award, according to international media. The media reports that he is a strong contender for the Ballon d’Or in 2022.

27 goals in La Liga, 15 in CL

The former Manchester United player, Louis Saha, is a former French international who has scored 27 goals in La Liga and 15 in the CL. In an interview with bet365, Saha was asked about the Ballon d’Or, and he said that he can think of no one else but Benzema.

Benzema. There is no doubt. That’s it. There is no other player to mention. If he doesn’t get the award, I don’t think we will see him again. It will be a scandal.”

Last season, Benzema scored 27 goals in La Liga and 15 in CL. He was the top scorer in La Liga and CL with 27 and 15 goals, respectively. He was a key player in winning the treble, including the Spanish Supercopa, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that his performance was directly related to the Ballon d’Or.

For this reason, Saha is confident that his compatriot Benzema will win the Ballon d’Or for the first time.
