Henry, Richards, and Carragher name their favorite for the 2025 Ballon d'Or

The football world only recently saw Rodri crowned as the 2024 Ballon d'Or winner, but discussions are already underway about next year’s potential recipient.

Details: Micah Richards, Thierry Henry, and Jamie Carragher all agree that Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah should be the frontrunner for the 2025 Ballon d'Or.

Quote: “I’m with Jamie. If he keeps this up, he will definitely win it,” said Henry after the Liverpool legend backed the Egyptian forward.

Notably, the 32-year-old is also the bookmakers’ favorite and could become only the second African player in history to win the prestigious award, thanks to his outstanding form.

Reminder: Salah has already scored 21 goals in the current Premier League season, maintaining his position at the top of the Golden Boot race. The Liverpool star also became the first player in Europe’s top five leagues to reach the 20-goal mark this season.
