Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann, Eden Hazard, Kevin Bruyne, Luka Modric, Harry Kane are looking for the world title and some of them will have the chance to raise the World Cup in a week in Moscow, but they could also apply for one of the most acclaimed recognitions by football players around the world, the next Golden Ball.

Past Winners

EL DATO
Lionel Messi, an Argentine footballer, has accumulated a total of 5 Gold Balls and a series of 4 consecutive prizes from 2009 to 2012.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo Dominated the Prize Prestigious award given by the French magazine France Footbal in the last decade, with five titles each.

The Portuguese won it in 2008, 2013, 2014, 2016 and 2017 and Argentina in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2015. Except for the exception of the CR7 in 2010, both have been on the podium continuously since 2007. [19659008] With Messi and Cristiano on vacation and with Brazilian star Neymar eliminated in the quarter-finals, the Golden Ball contender seems more open than ever, so the final result of the World Cup could end up conditioning the podium and the future winner of the prize
EL DATO
Cristiano Ronaldo, Portuguese footballer, won his first Golden Ball in 2008 and is equivalent to Messi with a total of 5 prices.
Surely, Messi and Cristiano can still stay on the podium and even opt for a sixth Golden Ball for what they've done in their clubs (League and Barcelona Cup and Real Madrid Champions). However, his unbaduming role in the World Cup, where both were eliminated in the quarter-finals, leaves room for new candidates, and there are many candidates among which the best scorers of the World Cup, led by the attacker Harry Kane. who accumulates a total of 6 goals scored.

The fact that the prize is redefined by France Football journalists and not by coaches and captains like at the FIFA Gold Ball, can facilitate a change of hierarchy in the maximum allocation of world football.
