Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique has named four players he believes can win the 2026 Ballon d’Or.
They are Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Vitinha, Fabián Ruiz and Ousmane Dembélé.
PSG already have the current holder of the award in Dembélé, who won the 2025 Ballon d’Or ahead of Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal.
Speaking after their 6-1 thrashing of Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League on Wednesday night, Enrique picked out players in his squad who he believes could win the prestigious individual award.
He said: “Kvara is a top, top player who can win the Ballon d’Or. The same for Vitinha, Fabián or Ousmane.
When I hear ‘Ousmane Ballon d’Or’ song, I feel we can have another one in the future…”
PSG have 10 players on the 30-man shortlist for this year’s Ballon d’Or.
It is the first time a club has had 10 nominees on the Ballon d’Or shortlist.
