The word of Luka Modric (36), winner of the 2018 Ballon d'Or, counts in the world of football. Even more when it comes to giving his opinion on the identity of the player who deserves to be crowned on November 29, at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris. Asked about this at a press conference, the Croatian international explained that in his eyes, his teammate Karim Benzema (33) is a very serious candidate for the final victory.

" Let's see. There are several candidates who can win it this year. For me Benzema is one of them and I hope that will happen. He can win it because he deserves it because of the way he's played this year and because of his career. He has always been at the highest level and won a title with France. I am sure that he is one of the candidates and I hope he will win it, because he deserves it ”, confided Luka Modric, before the meeting between Shakhtar Donetsk and Real Madrid in the Champions League. The pro-Benzema campaign is in full swing.
