Nicknamed 'The Little Napoleon' by the British press, the great Raymond Kopa was the first French player to win the Ballon D'or.

He passed away earlier this month at the age of 85 but his four podium finishes in the Ballon D'or and one victory in 1958 will never be forgotten.

Kopa won three European Cups with Real Madrid and he played in the first ever final of the completion for a club just as close to his heart, Stade de Reims.

The club's Sporting Director Alexandre Barbier pays tribute.
