This year's Ballon d'Or race could be one of the tightest for years, with a number of superstars in the running to nab the famous golden ball.
For the past decade or so, the award has been dominated by Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, with Messi, the current holder, having won his eighth Ballon d'Or in 2023.
Former Ballon d'Or winner Michael Owen has weighed in on the potential winners. According to him, the race is likely to be a showdown between Real Madrid duo, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr.
He told AceOdds: "Bellingham has obviously done great. If England go and have a great Euros then he would be the obvious one.
"Vinícius Júnior has done equally well. You've just got to wait for the Euros, haven't you?
"If Mbappe goes and scores a hat trick again in a final, like he did in the World Cup, he could be a late runner.
"As things stand, it probably looks like it is a toss-up between those two, Vinicius Junior and Bellingham, but there is still the biggest tournament to go of the year, so things can change."
