Didier Deschamps, the French national team coach, expressed no doubt about Franck Ribery’s deserving the Golden Ball award. Following the praise from former French international Zinedine Zidane for Ribery’s achievements with Bayern Munich, Deschamps affirmed that Ribery deserves the prestigious accolade. Deschamps emphasized Ribery’s consistent influence on the pitch and noted that his performances are also influenced by the players around him. Ribery, who scored a goal against Finland in a 3-0 victory, has been in excellent form and continues to impress both his coach and football pundits. The winner of the Ballon d’Or will be announced in January.
DESCHAMPS: “RIBÉRY GOLDEN BALL? YES, HE DESERVES IT”
