Former Bayern Munich legend Thomas Müller says he sees Michael Olise ahead of Harry Kane in the race for the Ballon d'Or.
Speaking in a recent interview with Sport BILD, Müller noted the 'artistic element' in the Frenchman's game as the difference maker.
“With his finishing and attacking qualities, Harry is the best striker I currently see. He's got a wide range of qualities.
"But he's not a player who can dribble past four people. As far as the Ballon d'Or is concerned, the 'artistic element' is taken into account.
"Generally, I see Harry as the more important player - but when it comes to the vote for the World's Best Player, it's more for players like Olise.
“Michael has this dance-like, artistic, ease, magic quality, you can't learn that. Michael is a player who delivers, a performer,” said Müller.
A little over a month ago, Score90 reflected Müller's option, placing Olise first and Kane second in the race for the Balon d'Or award.
