Moreover, Benzema is not young anymore but Banzema is still playing very well and indeed, Lewandowski is also old and was able to make a good contribution to Bayern Munich last season. But yes, Lewandowski cannot give more and higher titles like the Champions League to Bayern Munich so his assessment is still not enough to get him to win the Ballon d'Or.
This is clearly something that is very good for Benzema because it can be said that even though he is not young anymore, his contribution last season was really extraordinary, even if it could be said that the only thing that could hold Benzema back last season was only an injury that bothered him a bit. it doesn't exist anymore so it's a fair tribute to Benzema.
