Portuguese television RTP was the first such serious way to report the results of this year’s poll of the best soccer player in the world. And shortly after, the Spanish newspaper “Mundo Deportivo” confirmed Messi’s victory in the Ballon d’Or race.
Pascal Ferry, editor-in-chief of France Football, considers the leaks a big hoax. “This is a load of nonsense we have seen in the past 10 days. G *** is correct – said a French journalist quoted by sport.bild.de.
The main candidates for the Ballon d’Or in 2021 are Leo Messi and Robert Lewandowski. The Argentine presented himself in style to Barcelona this spring and won by representing him at this year’s Copa America. In turn, Lewandowski broke Gerd Muller’s legendary record last season and is by far the most goal-scoring player in the world in 2021.
The results of this year’s France Football referendum will be announced on November 29 in Paris. Leo Messi has a chance to win the seventh Ballon d’Or in his career.
