Anchelotti: Maldini deserved the Golden Ball

The Italian specialist Carlo Ancelotti, currently serving as the head coach of the Brazil national team, named a player deserving of the "Golden Ball" award. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

In his opinion, Paolo Maldini was deserving of this award throughout his entire career. Ancelotti stated that the only reason Maldini did not receive the award was because he played in a defensive position.

Paolo Maldini served as the captain of the "Milan" club from 1984 to 2009. He became the Italian champion seven times with the "rossoneri" team and won the UEFA Champions League five times.

Additionally, Maldini played in 126 matches for the Italy national team, managing to score seven goals. His performances and leadership abilities have been highly regarded by many fans and specialists.

According to Ancelotti, although Maldini's chances of winning the "Golden Ball" were limited due to being a defender, he will remain in history as one of the greatest players of his era.
