Your 2022 Ballon d'Or winner.

None other than Karim Benzema
quote:
The wait is over. Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema won his first career Ballon d'Or on Monday, October 17, becoming the second oldest player to win the award at age 34 and the oldest since Englishman Stanley Matthews who won the very first Ballon d'Or in 1956 at age 41.
The Frenchman was rewarded for a magical 2021/22 season in which his team won both Spain's La Liga and the UEFA Champions League and he finished as the top scorer in both competitions. He also won the UEFA Nations League with France.
It had been a foregone conclusion for months that Benzema would win the award as best player in the world given there was realistically no other player who came close to his achievements and trophy haul. He totaled 44 goals for Real Madrid and another six for France in 2021/22.

Good for him.
Not a Madrid fan, but respect and love watching Benzema.

Like a fine wine, Benz has gotten better with age. Who needs Mbappe anyway.

Right guy got it…
Used to care that Lewa got snubbed in the year they didn’t give one, but he skies sitters in front of goal now…
I’d have taken Musiala over Gavi for the Kopa but that’s splitting hairs
