However, France Football’s Chief editor Pascal Ferré made a great revelation over the feeling of a past winner who started crying when he told him that he’s the chosen one.

And it’s Real Madrid star Luka Modric who won the Ballon d’Or in 2018.

“We are very careful. But the identity of the Ballon d’Or winner is a big secret”, Ferré during an interview with the New York Times.

“There is no equivalent in the rest of the sport, I think. When I called Luka Modric, the 2018 winner, to tell him the news of his victory, the Croatian cried like a baby.”
