Ballon d'Or: "In France, they prefer Kvara over Dembélé, it's a mockery," Aurier's outburst

Former Ivorian international Serge Aurier criticized the lack of support from the French public for their star players, especially Kylian Mbappé, who he believes is undervalued in France despite his outstanding performances in La Liga, the Champions League, and the 2026 World Cup. Aurier also condemns the French preference for Georgian player Kvara Kvaratskhelia over Ousmane Dembélé and Mbappé, calling it an anomaly and a mockery. He laments that media figures like RMC favor foreign players like Lamine Yamal over French players. Aurier, who played three seasons at PSG, expresses his frustration with this trend.
