'I want to have at least one vote!' - Chelsea star Jorginho says he would vote for himself for Ballon d’Or

Jorginho has joked he would vote for himself for the Ballon d’Or award if given the chance to ensure he gets at least one pick for the illustrious prize.

The midfielder is among the contenders for the prestigious award after a fine year that has brought victories in the Champions League and Super Cup with Chelsea and Euro 2020 with Italy.

Aside from himself, Jorginho says Manchester City’s Kevin de Bruyne would be his pick, though Lionel Messi and Robert Lewandowski are the frontrunners for the award which will be handed out at a ceremony in Paris on November 29.
