Carlo Ancelotti: 'Zlatan Ibrahimovic can win FIFA Ballon d'Or'

Paris Saint-Germain coach Carlo Ancelotti believes that striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will win the FIFA Ballon d'Or in the coming years.

However, the Italian admits that Barcelona forward Lionel Messi and Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo are favourites to win the prestigious individual award for 2012.

"I think he can win it," said Ancelotti. "But he still has time to win.

"Last season he won nothing, which is why he may have more possibility in a year's time."

"Messi or Ronaldo," he added when asked who he thinks will win the Ballon d'Or this year.

The winner of the award will be announced on January 7 next year.
