For some players everything is possible and indeed only a handful of people can do this and Benzema is one of them now.
Age is just a number really happened but most likely this only happened once for him. Even though this season there are still the same opportunities but seeing the condition of some of the current young players who are quite good I seem a little doubtful that Benzema can do this again.
It seems that Benzema will perform well this season as well. Among the young players, the performance of none other than Haaland seems satisfactory. If Benzema can continue his performance as consistently as last season and if Real Madrid is able to win the La Liga and Champions League titles again, Benzema may be able to win the Ballon d'Or again. We are not getting satisfactory performances from players like Lelandowski and Messi.
It's still not certain.
Now 10 weeks have passed and Benzema still hasn't shown his prime until now.
There are several reasons, such as the injury factor for a while and maybe the clubs now will not make Benzema free in the defense area so this is another factor.
He has to get out of his zone now and try to keep playing attractive performances like before so that he can make free movement later in the Liga that Madrid is running.
Of course at this time he must realize that if his current form is still the same then the Ballon d'Or title will only be once in his name although indeed I am still proud of this player.
