Four Tiers Apart! Commentator Says Yamal and Mbappe Are Not on the Same Level

With the Ballon d'Or ceremony set for October 26 in London, Yamal and Mbappe are in a tight competition for the prestigious award. Yamal had previously stated publicly that this year's Ballon d'Or should belong to him. Commentator Edu Aguirre, on the show El Chiringuito, bluntly stated that while he appreciates Yamal and acknowledges the young player has entered the world's top echelon, he remains four tiers below Mbappe. Aguirre believes Mbappe's individual ability is in a class of its own, ahead of everyone else, and that reasonable comparisons for Yamal should be players like Raphinha or Olise. Aguirre concludes that Mbappe is currently the world number one.
