Asamoah Gyan believes Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane have the caliber to win the Ballon d’Or, saying “Salah could have won a ballon d’Or.
Mane could have won a ballon d’Or.” The former Ghana captain expressed puzzlement over the award’s outcomes, noting “I always ask questions why these things happen.”
“Maybe they have their way of nominating the players,” Gyan said on Rio Ferdinand’s podcast, hinting at perceived biases in the voting process.
He insists that Salah and Mane are exceptional players who’ve achieved great success in top leagues.
“These players I’ve mentioned, one of them, for sure, could have won the ballon d’Or,” Gyan added, highlighting their impressive track records.
