Answer: option d.
Explanation:
In this situation, we can suppose that the football player has a velocity of 2m/s in the positive x-axis, and the ball has a velocity of -5m/s in the x-axis.
If we step in the point of view of the football player, all the previous x-axis now moves with the same velocity that the player had, but in the other direction, so all the axis now moves with a velocity of -2m/s. And the ball that also is in the axis also gets this "boost" in velocity.
So now the velocity of the ball is -5m/s -2m/s = -7m/s where the minus sign is because of the situation that I crafted.
So the correct option is the option D
