Kylian Mbappe Says He Doesn't Deserve Ballon d'Or: 'I Still Have Time to Win'

Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe has said he doesn't deserve to win the 2019 Ballon d'Or, but the forward remains confident of his future chances.

Mbappe, who turns 21 in December, spoke to Ouest France (h/t Goal) and said he didn't believe he deserves the 2019:

"This year? You have to be realistic, I do not deserve it. There are players who have done more.

"With PSG, we did not win all the national titles. In the Champions League, we disappointed.

"Sure, at the individual level, I did win a lot of trophies, but football is not played alone and must accept it.
