Benzema's Ballon d'Or was controversial, at least for this Real Madrid player who says he deserved to win it.

It seemed that everything was going to be a party and everything was going to be good within Real Madrid, but as usual, every year at the Ballon d'Or ceremony, there is always at least a little bit of controversy and this time was no exception.

The winner of the golden ball was clearly Karim Benzema, the votes have not yet been revealed since Frank Football, however, it is rumored in the local media in France that it was a record vote, that is to say that there was not even a debate practically and the winner was Benzema by far.

The debate, however, is within Real Madrid itself. There is a player who congratulated Karim Benzema for winning the award, but hinted that he deserved it and that it is a bit unfair for players in his position.

We are talking about Thibaut Courtois, Real Madrid's Belgian goalkeeper who was chosen as the best goalkeeper in the world and of the year. His words did not go unnoticed and became a trend on social networks, as many people already think that Benzema would not have received the goalkeeper's words well.

What did Courtois say?

'I'm not even on the podium being the goalkeeper who has won La Liga and the Champions League. for a goalkeeper it is impossible to win this award. I don't know if as a goalkeeper you can do more than what I did last year,' he confessed.
