France captain Kylian Mbappe has decided he wants to only play important games for his country, as he targets winning the Ballon d’Or award in 2025.
The Independent Mirror report that according to French football insider Santi Aouna, who has on Saturday provided an insight into the current mindset of the 25-year-old.
Mbappe caused controversy last week, by deciding not to be considered for selection for Les Bleus’ fixtures during the current international break.
Mbappe wants to avoid picking up injuries and be able to play as many matches as possible for Real Madrid.
According to him, this will give him the best possible chance of winning his first-ever Ballon d’Or.
His Real Madrid teammate Vinicius Junior will almost certainly take home the award in 2024, but Mbappe already has his mind set on winning in 2025.
