Lionel Messi is expected to win the 2023 Ballon d’Or, extending his record for the most Ballon d’Or awards to eight. The Argentine led his country to the 2022 FIFA World Cup and helped PSG win the Ligue 1 title in 2022/23 before moving on to the MLS, joining Inter Miami.
The forward helped them win their first piece of silverware in the Leagues Cup within his first few games and is now set to be rewarded with the Golden Ball once again. The decision will soon be official at the Ballon d’Or ceremony, where a number of other awards will also be given to coaches, teams and players.
