khaleejtimes.com —

Harry Kane won the Ballon d'Or on Monday, becoming the first English winner in 25 years, and has set his sights on Champions League glory with Bayern Munich and a major trophy with England. The 33-year-old beat Kylian Mbappe and Lamine Yamal after scoring 73 goals in 65 games last season, leading Bayern to a league and cup double. He called the award "beyond my wildest dreams" and said it was "massive for England." Kane's trophy haul remains limited to German domestic honours, having lost two European Championship finals and a World Cup semifinal. Alexia Putellas won the women's prize for a third time, while Spain's Luis de la Fuente was named men's coach of the year.
