Ballon d'Or 2026: Morgan Rogers makes his choice for the winner

Only a few more days remain before the name of the 2026 Ballon d'Or winner is revealed. Morgan Rogers sees Harry Kane as the winner.

Who will succeed Ousmane Dembélé as the 2026 Ballon d'Or winner? After Harry Kane's latest outstanding performance (33 years old, 125 caps and 91 goals) on Tuesday evening against the Czech Republic (3-0), several of his teammates have been backing the Bayern Munich striker. Morgan Rogers is one example.

"Can he win the Ballon d'Or? He should win it, yes! He has had a great season, beyond what people expected. He won the treble with Bayern (the Bundesliga, the German Cup and the German Super Cup), and he scored a hat-trick in the final (of the German Cup, against Stuttgart, ed.). Then there are his goals at the World Cup, his goals for Bayern… What more can he do? When you look at his season, you wonder what he could have done better. That has to be rewarded," Chelsea's attacking midfielder told Hayters TV.
