Karim Benzema has had a perfect season. After bringing Real Madrid to La Liga champions this season, Benzema also presented the 14th Champions League trophy for Los Blancos.
According to Rio Ferdinand, Benzema’s complete appearance this season has made him worthy of winning the Ballon d’Or. Ferdinand thinks that if Benzema doesn’t win the title, then the Ballon d’Or is just a parody.

“All the debate is over about the Ballon d’Or. If Benzema doesn’t get it, then it’s just a parody of the title, “said Ferdinand as quoted by the Daily Mail.
“The boys watched the game, they saw the striker, they saw the goal. But if you want to be a complete striker, then you look at Benzema.”
“I don’t think I can do much more with my club. We will see what happens, but in any case I am proud of what I have done”
