Everyone dreams of signing future Ballon d'Or winner Kylian Mbappe - Dennis Appiah

Nantes defender Dennis Appiah has stated Kylian Mbappe has the "qualities to win the Ballon d’Or" after finishing sixth in this year's event which was held in Paris on Monday.

The 20-year finished behind ultimate winner Lionel Messi, Virgil van Dijk, Cristiano Ronaldo and the African duo of Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah.

Appiah, in an exclusive interview with Goal, thinks it is achievable if the former Monaco hotshot remains fit.

"If he continues this way, without a problem, he will go very, very high. I find that he masters his career very well with his entourage," said the 27-year old of Ghanaian descent.
