Ballon d’Or 2026: ‘He’s top five currently’ – James Rodriguez names player to win award

Daily Post about 2 hours 1 mins read

Former Real Madrid star, James Rodriguez, has backed Bayern Munich winger, Luis Diaz to win the Ballon d’Or this year.

Rodriguez believes his fellow Colombian teammate Diaz can win the individual prize if his country reaches the final of the 2026 World Cup this summer.

He also insisted that the former Liverpool man is currently among the top five best players in the world.

“Luis Diaz as Ballon d’Or, why not? For me, he is top 5 in the world right now already,” Rodriguez said as quoted by Fabrizio Romano.

“If we get to the final, he can win the Ballon d’Or.”

Diaz has been impressive for Bayern Munich since joining the club from Liverpool. He helped them to win the Bundesliga title last season.
