About The Author
France football legend, Thierry Henry, has said Barcelona’s Raphinha is his favourite to win this year’s Ballon d’Or award.
Raphinha scored twice against Benfica on Tuesday night, as they won the second leg of their Champions League last-16 second leg in Spain.
The Brazilian winger had scored the only goal of the game in the away fixture.
“Raphinha is leading the Ballon d’Or race,” Henry said.
“Raphinha has been amazing in the Champions League, scoring a lot of goals with just one penalty.
“A complete player is someone who presses, defends, and helps the full-back defend. Raphinha has it all.”
