It might still be early July but the Italian press is already chalking up the candidates for the prestigious Ballon DâOr prize. According to certain sections, the Spanish duo Fernando Torres and Iker Casillas are the favourites for the prize.
Casillas has been the best goalkeeper in the world for many,many years and he is only 27 years of age. Last season he was arguably the best and most consistent player for Real Madrid as the Merengues won the Spanish first division title for the second season in a row.
Sain Iker was also in great form at Euro 2008 where he captained Spain to European success.
Fenando Torres too is being hailed by the Italian press as being one of the favourites for the European Player of the Year award. Torres had a superb debut season with Liverpool as he scored 33 goals in all competitions for the Reds.
Torres also scored the winning goal against Germany in the final of Euro 2008 last month.
