Just shake a tree for trophies to appear from the early careers of Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé. Following their sensational 2022 year ended with a fierce fight in the World Cup final, the two PSG stars were respectively elected Champion of world champions and Champion of champions France by the daily The Team this Friday, two awards presented each year since 1975 and 1946.
Kylian Mbappé, author of 56 goals and 17 assists in 56 meetings over the calendar year, and of a Homeric World Cup campaign this winter, succeeds French cyclist Julian Alaphilippe and is ahead of Karim Benzema, second. The native of Bondy, who every year pushes the limits of the possible, becomes the first footballer since Zinédine Zidane in 1998 to receive the distinction. As for Lionel Messi, rewarded for his title of world champion with Argentina and for his year always rich in statistics (51 matches, 35 goals, 30 assists), he becomes the first footballer since himself in 2011, to to be crowned, and ahead of his club teammate Kylian Mbappé. Maybe a clue to the next Ballon d’Or fight.
