Tottenham’s head coach Thomas Frank named PSG midfielder Vitinha as one of the main contenders for the Ballon d’Or. In the fifth round match of the main stage of the Champions League against Spurs, the Portuguese scored a hat-trick, and the Parisians secured a comeback victory with a score of 5:3.
«Today I saw more traits of the team I want to build, we want to build. More character, individuality, aggressiveness. These are three qualities that any team must have, regardless of the style, way of playing, or chosen scheme.
We played against a very serious team, where there is already one Ballon d’Or winner, and in my opinion, the next winner of this award plays in midfield — Vitinha. Wow, what a player,» Frank told Sky Sports.
