Moreover, he went on the record to heap praise on the 7-time winner.

The award should do to Leo, no doubt. What he pulled off in the World Cup was special. His campaign reminded me of that of Pelé and Maradona.
Ronaldo said to TNT Sports

Even though Erling Haaland‘s treble-winning season warrants a strong claim to the award, Messi’s stats outweigh the latter’s, according to R9. His World Cup, Ligue 1, and French Super Cup offers tough competition to the youngster.

Social media is in splits as to the deserved winner, with many struggling to pick a side. Recently, Messi’s former coach and Haaland’s current, Pep Guardiola weighed in on the same. He cheekily claimed that Haaland does deserve the award, but Messi is a step above the rest. Subsequently, the Argentine star’s friend informed the media that he was already informed of his victory days ago.
