With Real Madrid’s poor performance in recent matches, it can be difficult to think about things like the Ballon d’Or, especially after unexpected results in some games.<\/p>\n
However, Real Madrid remains one of the best clubs in the world, and it is natural for one or more of its players to be nominated for the prestigious award, as happened this year.<\/p>\n
In this context, former Real Madrid legend Gareth Bale made a controversial comment about the award from Anfield. In his statements, Bale discussed the poor performance of his former team, but at the same time indicated that Real Madrid still has the ability to overcome the current challenges, stressing that the team is capable of winning both the Champions League and La Liga this season. Despite the difficulty of the task, Bale believes that Real Madrid still has the opportunity to bounce back and secure titles.<\/p>\n
However, when talking about the Ballon d’Or, Bale pointed to a surprising candidate to win it in 2025. According to “Cardiff Express” newspaper, Bale believes that Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 is the most likely to win the upcoming individual award.
\nBut with the start of the 2024\/25 season, Mbapp\u00e9 has yet to perform as expected, and has not appeared as consistently as he did before.<\/p>\n
Although he has shown glimpses of his excellent form, his overall performance is still far from the standards that made him one of the best players in the world.
\nThis decline in Mbapp\u00e9’s form has begun to raise some questions among Real Madrid fans, who have started to show signs of frustration with his performance. Many are wondering about the solution to this problem, which has yet to find a clear resolution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
