The Ballon d'Or ceremony will be held on October 30 in Paris, but the first news about who will be the footballer who will personalize the important individual trophy have also started to emerge.
"Dario Sport" from Spain dares and gives it for sure that the winner will be Lionel Messi, who would collect the Ballon d'Or for the eighth time.
A triumph that, if confirmed, would undoubtedly be very difficult to break in the future with his rival Cristiano Ronaldo remaining in the quota of five trophies.
Lionel Messi won the World Cup with Argentina in Qatar, becoming the leader of the "Albiceleste". "Pleshti" managed to win the only trophy he lacked in his palmares, and of course this may have influenced the votes for the Golden Ball.
Messi's biggest challenger was Erling Haaland, who in turn won three trophies with Manchester City, among them the Champions League, being the best scorer of "The Citizens" while also breaking many records in England.
However, according to the Spaniards, these were not enough to defeat Lionel Messi, who will apparently be crowned at the ceremony on October 30, as the 36-year-old has formalized his participation in the event./ Supersport
