Mesut Ozil has joked that his Arsenal team-mate Mathieu Flamini should win the Ballon d’Or over Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar.
The La Liga superstars make up a three-man shortlist for the prize but Ozil clearly believes Flamini’s name should have been included among the candidates.
Flamini was a surprise nomination for the NME People Of The Year 2015 award but sadly has not been recognised by FIFA for the Ballon d’Or ceremony being held on Monday evening.
‘Is #Flamini nominated?,’ Ozil replied when asked who should win this year during a question and answer session he conducting with his Twitter followers.
To be fair, the French midfielder still boasts a 100% win record at home which none of Messi, Ronaldo or Neymar can claim…
It’s believed the Gunners duo have a pretty serious bromance going on so Ozil’s latest statement will do little to douse those flames.
