Deniz Undav produced a standout season for VfB Stuttgart, totaling 25 goals and 14 assists in 46 matches across all competitions. The performance likely positions him for a raise and a contract extension. After VfB Stuttgart lost the DFB-Pokal final 3-0 to Bayern Munich, Undav was asked who he expected to win the Ballon d'Or. He said he was more inclined toward Michael Olise, while acknowledging that both Olise and Harry Kane would deserve the award. The World Cup could influence the outcome, since England’s Harry Kane and France’s Michael Olise are among the favorites and could strengthen their cases through tournament performance.
"The 29-year-old attacker registered 25 goals and 14 assists in 46 games across all competitions for Die Schwaben and has likely earned himself a raise and a contract extension from VfB Stuttgart."
"I'm more inclined towards (Michael) Olise. I mean both (Olise, Harry Kane) would deserve it, but I'm more for Olise,"
"The race between Kane and Olise is a fun, theoretical exercise, but the World Cup could play a big role in who wins the trophy. With both England (Kane) and France (Olise) as some of the favorites to win the World Cup, both players have a chance to be in position to make their case for the award."
