Tonight it will be known who will receive the “Golden Ball” award.
There are three names in the race: Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland.
It is known that according to the organizers the race is very close.
The three contenders are very close with votes from each other.
“This year it’s tight… it’s very, very tight,” said France Football editor-in-chief Vincent Garcia.
The main question of the night is:
“Will Messi deepen the record of the player who has won this award the most, or will the big family of winners expand?”.
Lionel Messi won the World Cup with Argentina.
Erling Haaland led Manchester City to the triple crown (Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League).
Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe scored a hat-trick in the World Cup final for France, despite not being crowned champions, and won the Golden Boot at the World Cup.
