I’ll Trade My Ballon d’Or Award For A UCL Trophy – Kane

Harry Kane has said that he would trade his Ballon d’Or award for winning the UCL with Bayern Munich. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

Stressing that he is incredibly proud of the recognition, Kane stated that winning a UCL trophy with the German giant would be an absolute dream.

The England captain added that he expects a very tough match from Atletico Madrid this week.

His words, “Team trophies are why we play football. The team aspect of our sport is really, really important.

The Ballon d’Or last week was one of the best feelings I’ve had in my life and my career… but to have moments with the team, celebrations with the club, to be able to lift the Champions League with Bayern would be an incredible feeling.

Of course the Ballon d’Or is a highlight, it puts me on an even bigger level, but you want to have these big finals, the Champions League, having that feeling of emotion with your team-mates as well. I would choose the Champions League, but I have the opportunity to do both, let’s see what happens.

I’d like to thank Simeone, who is one of the best coaches of this era. I’m proud to receive praise from someone like him. Winning the Ballon d’Or was a huge achievement for me- I’ve had to overcome many challenges in my career, some people didn’t think I’d get this far… but Simeone will do everything he can to stop me and the team tomorrow.”
