Former French international Marklele said in a recent interview with the media that he believes Paris Saint-Germain striker Ottoman Dembele will win the Golden Ball in the future.
"I think Dembele will win more and more Golden Balls in the future, but for me, I will give Dembele this year. Since moving to Paris, he has begun to understand that he can be a leader. I think he deserves the award because he has won many trophies this season," said Marklele.
Speaking of Real Madrid winger Rodrigo may switch to the Premier League. As a star who once won two La Liga titles with Real Madrid and two Premier League titles with Chelsea, Marklele knows the differences between the two leagues better than most people.
When asked about his opinion on Rodrigo's possible transfer to England, Marklele said "It's hard for almost all Brazilian players to achieve too much success in the Premier League." He believes that the physical confrontation in the Premier League is not suitable for Rodrigo, who will be frustrated if he can't keep the ball in control. Moreover, if Rodrigo really wants to transfer, he should only consider teams like Arsenal that focus on ball control to adapt to his style.
Marklele then talked about his old club Chelsea. He believes that the youth-oriented transfer policy of the Blues' new management does have the value of cultivating young players, but there are also risks and hidden dangers.
"I think Chelsea's plan is to ingest more young players for development, and sometimes it's dangerous to put all the young players together. When you get into a big game like the final, sometimes you need experience," Marklele said.
Although many football experts predict that the Premier League title will once again be the two strongest rivalries between Manchester City and Arsenal, and Liverpool currently tops the list in Premier League championship odds, Marklele has a different view. He believes that intensive schedules, including domestic events and the upcoming World Cup, will result in unprecedented fatigue among players, which will open the door for a dark horse team to challenge the top seats.
"I think there may be some surprises in the Premier League this season. I don't think we're going to see only the traditional top five. Maybe one team will stand out because all the teams in the Premier League have made great progress. I think many teams will be tired under such a intensive schedule this season," said Marklele.
