"It was unexpected... one of these 2 footballers deserved the Ballon d'Or more" - Cucurella on the Ballon d'Or award

Real Madrid's 28-year-old Spanish defender Marc Cucurella spoke about this year's Ballon d'Or award ceremony. In his view, Kane had remarkable statistics, but his victory was nevertheless unexpected. The Madrid side's left-back believes that handing the prize to his compatriot Lamine Yamal or to his Real Madrid teammate Kylian Mbappé would have been fairer.
