Detailing French forward Kylian Mbappe's odds to win the 2026 Ballon d'Or.
Kylian Mbappé is the second favorite to win the most prestigious award in soccer. The French forward has never won the award during his career, but has consistently been named among the best players in the world since helping France win the 2018 World Cup.
2026 Ballon d'Or Odds: +100
During the 2025/26 season, he played 44 matches for his club, scoring 42 goals and providing 7 assists. He was the top scorer at the World Cup, netting 10 goals and delivering 4 assists in 8 games for France.
Despite these stellar individual achievements, a lack of major team trophies this season significantly hurts his chances of securing his first Ballon d'Or.
France finished 4th at the 2026 World Cup, and Real Madrid failed to win a single trophy during the season. To add insult to injury, Mbappe and Madrid had to watch Barcelona sweep the domestic trophies in Spain, and eight players from that Barcelona team also won the World Cup with Spain.
Although Mbappe's teams have not won any major trophies, his individual statistics are otherworldly.
