Former Paris Saint-Germain manager Christophe Galtier has backed three current stars from the French club to win the 2026 Ballon d'Or. The experienced coach believes Fabian Ruiz, Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia are all strong contenders for the prestigious individual honour.
Ousmane Dembele has firmly dismissed rumours of a fallout with France team-mate Kylian Mbappe following comments regarding the upcoming Ballon d'Or ceremony. Speculation suggested a frosty relationship had developed between the pair after Mbappe spoke to the media, but Dembele insists their close friendship remains completely intact as they reunite on international duty this week.
Former France international Vikash Dhorasoo has issued a rallying cry to Indian football, insisting that his own decorated career serves as evidence that players of Indian descent can reach the very top of the game. The former midfielder, who reached the World Cup final with Les Bleus, believes the nation's current standing does not reflect its massive potential.
The man behind the Football Leaks revelations has launched a blistering attack on FIFA president Gianni Infantino, claiming the Swiss official has no place in the sport’s future. Rui Pinto, whose leaked documents sparked the long-running Premier League investigation into Manchester City, alleges that Infantino actively helped elite clubs circumvent financial regulations during his time at UEFA.
