The 25-year-old, who is nominated alongside Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, among others, believes there is only one "clear" winner this time around, and admitted he would be surprised if his pick did not win it.
"In my opinion, Cristiano has to win this Ballon d'Or – it is clear," Isco said, as quoted by Football Espana.
"Being on the podium will be hard enough because there are so many fantastic players who have enjoyed a tremendous year.
"There are many great players among the 30 nominees, and it is an honour that I am among them, anything more would be a dream.
"Sergio Ramos and Luka Modric can both be there as well, they have been so vital for us, and more widely, any player from Real Madrid can be there due to the year we have had.
"To have an amazing season is key to winning these individual prizes and the more we do as a team, the more individual prizes the players will win also."
