Lukas Podolski hits the Golden Ball. Voting has a lot to do with politics.

– I think the selection should be made on the basis of a specific position. The best in the world – this cannot be measured by any measure – continued Lukas Podolsky. According to Górnik sniper, we should give away at least four golden balls every year – for the best goalkeeper, defender, midfielder and striker.

Let us remind you that this year’s poll for the best footballer in the world will be announced on November 29th at the Théâtre de Paris du Châtelet. The main candidates for the Ballon d’Or are Robert Lewandowski and Leo Messi.
