Benzema: I want to win the Ballon D'Or as Ronaldo and Zidane did.

Karim Benzema, a Real Madrid striker, has voiced his desire to win the Ballon D'Or like his heroes Ronaldo de Lima and Zinedine Zidane. 

Following his excellent campaign, Benzema has been named to the 30-man shortlist for the 2021 Ballon D'Or. 

Last season, the 33-year-old was LaLiga's second top scorer, and he currently leads the Spanish top flight in goals and assists. 

The France international has now stated that winning the award would allow him to realize a childhood ambition.

"Won the Ballon d'Or?" Benzema told Canal+. Yes, that is one of the many dreams I've had since I was a child. Of course, as a kid, I fantasized about it. 

R9 [Ronaldo] and Zizou [Zidane], my idols, both came to Real Madrid and won the Ballon d'Or. And that's one of the minor details I consider. I'm not far from there right now.
