Former Dynamo Kyiv coach Jozsef Szabo commented on the presentation of the 8th Ballon d'Or to Lionel Messi.
Jozsef Szabo- I support Messi's choice. He won the World Cup and performed brilliantly at the World Cup. Whatever team Messi plays for, he is always a leader. Apart from PSG, there were more showdowns there. The Argentine is already an old player, but he is still the best - he scores, passes, can spin three defenders in a square metre.
Other strikers do not have such qualities. Let's take Holland. The Norwegian depends on his partners, but he can't create anything on his own. He's a good finisher, but not a versatile player like Messi.
I think we will soon have the Mbappe era if he joins Real Madrid, and it will be Kilian who will receive the Ballon d'Or. He is the closest replacement for Messi. Ronaldo is no longer showing anything, his time has passed," said Jožef Jožefović.
