Ballon d'Or 2026: 'He's a total footballer' - Roberto De Zerbi names award winner

Tottenham Hotspur manager, Roberto De Zerbi, has named Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane as the player who deserves to win the Ballon d’Or on Monday.

De Zerbi described the England captain as a total footballer, adding that he can play multiple positions.

He spoke ahead of Tottenham’s clash with Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

“Harry Kane deserves to win the Ballon d’Or in my view,” De Zerbi said as quoted by Fabrizio Romano.

“He’s a 9, a 10, he’s a number 2, number 6, a total player.”

Kane, who scored over 70 goals for Bayern Munich and England last season, is expected to compete with strong contenders like Kylian Mbappe and Lamine Yamal for the Ballon d’Or.
