The striker shared his unique thoughts on the prestigious
award ahead of his side’s friendly with Real Madrid in Doha on Thursday
Paris Saint Germain's Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed he
hopes Santa Claus wins the Ballon d'Or rather than the three high-profile
contenders for the prize.
The Sweden international was touted as a potential winner
of the prize himself before Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Franck Ribery
were named on a three-man shortlist for the award, which will be presented to
the winner on January 13.
Speaking to the press in Doha, Ibrahimovic joked: “The
Ballon d’Or? For me, the three deserve to win it, but the one who must have it
is Santa Claus.”
