Chelsea midfielder Jorginho offers his tips for Ballon d'Or

Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has offered his tips for the Ballon d'Or.

Jorginho is among the 30 nominees for the coveted award.

With PSG attacker Leo Messi failing to impress in France, Jorginho said he would vote for Chelsea team-mate N'Golo Kante or Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne to win the award if he was involved in the selection process.

“I would vote in the Ballon d'Or for Kante or De Bruyne," Jorginho admitted.

“Talking to other defenders from big teams, De Bruyne requires much more attention than players that win every year the prize."

The two Premier League stars are both on the shortlist of 30 for the award but are considered as outsiders to land the trophy.
