On Saturday, France Football will release the full breakdown of the Ballon d’Or votes. While fans eagerly await the details, Vincent Garcia, editor-in-chief of the outlet that organizes the award, makes it clear that Dembélé’s win over Yamal is indisputable.

“If I had to give you a trend, there was no contest,” Garcia told La Chaîne L’EQUIPE (h/t Le10Sport). “Honestly, Ousmane won by a wide margin. You can find all the vote details and point breakdowns in France Football on Saturday, but Ousmane clearly won over our jurors. This Ballon d’Or carries real authority with our panel…

“Vitinha still received a few first-place votes. Achraf Hakimi too, but very few. And Ousmane Dembélé practically swept the votes. Well, not a complete sweep, but he won by a large margin. And this was consistent across all continents—Africa, Europe, South America, North America. So, it’s a clear and decisive Ballon d’Or.”
