Lionel Messi will win his eight Ballon D’or this Monday.

Nobody is talking about anything else, the Ballon d’Or is about to be awarded… This Monday, October 30, the France Football gala will be held and the largest individual award will be awarded to the best footballer of the entire year!
Although the debate was previously created between whether Erling Haaland or Lionel Messi deserved it, now various media have already confirmed that the winner has already been selected, and it is none other than Lionel Messi. The Argentine managed to win the World Cup and that, added to a great year, would have been enough to beat the historic year that Erling Haaland had.
Now, the legend Thierry Henry has sent a message to all those who believe that it is unfair that Lionel Messi won the award: “If you win the World Cup like he did, regardless of what happened in the final that as a Frenchman I was a little disappointed, he has to win it. You can’t say he doesn’t deserve it. For me this year the Ballon d’Or is deserved by Messi, without a doubt.”
What else did Henry say?
“Some Manchester City players, like Haaland, may think: ‘Why not me?’ But it wouldn’t be right if they won it… For me? Messi, goodbye, it’s over.” Just like that, Henry ended the whole debate.
