I ll be able to win this award in the future - Karim Benzema s old quotes from 2015 resurface after historic 2022 Ballon d Or triumph

Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema's pld quote has resurfaced forward 's old quotes from 2015 have resurfaced following his 2022 win. Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi were the two standout players in the world back in 2015. However, Benzema always believed in his ability and stated that if he puts in the right amount of work, he can match the two legends and win the award himself. Needless to say, he has done just that. After an incredible season with Real Madrid last term, where he scored 44 goals and provided 16 assists in 46 games, Benzema has been named the best player in the world. He also won La Liga and UEFA Champions League trophies last season. In light of the French forward's historical success, his old quote from over seven years ago has resurfaced. Here's what he told Le Parisien back in 2015 (via ): "If I continue winning titles, I will be able to win this award in the future. There are Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi , the two best players. We know that I am not going to reach eighty or one hundred goals per season. They do get there. Then come many players who are worthwhile. They can put me in the 'top 5', I certainly don't know." Since Ronaldo's departure from the Spanish capital in 2018, Karim Benzema has taken his game to a new level.
