According to the first rumors, released by the Spanish press, the name of the winner for the 2023 Ballon d’Or is already known.
According to Sport, the 2023 Ballon d’Or should go to Argentine world champion Lionel Messi, seven-time winner and crowned in 2021. He would therefore succeed Frenchman Karim Benzema.
Once again in the running for the precious France Football trophy, Kylian Mbappé, fourth in 2018, would therefore not be the lucky one a priori and would still have to wait before winning the ultimate recognition for a football player.
A first in history?
The Catalan daily announces that the now Inter Miami player will lift his 8th Golden Ball during the ceremony on Monday October 30 in Paris, at the Châtelet theater. With seven trophies to his name (2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2019, 2021), Lionel Messi is the most successful player, ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo, who has five (2008, 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017) .
In any case, he would achieve a unique performance. Indeed, no player playing outside Europe has won the Ballon d’Or in history.
