Messi has won the ‘Golden Ball’ for 2019, writing the story after becoming the only player to have won the prize six times, leaving Ronaldo 5 behind.

As expected, Lionel Messi is officially the winner of the ‘Golden Ball’ for 2019, an award given by ‘France Football’.

He beat Virgil van Dijkin, Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Manen to win this award for the sixth time in a row, more than any other player in history.

Leo left Cristiano behind with five ‘Golden Balls’.

This award went to the Argentine thanks to another magical season, where in 50 games in all competitions in the 2018/19 edition, he scored 51 goals and provided 22 assists.

Messi received another individual trophy in October, the ‘The Best’ award given by FIFA, while also snatching the ‘Golden Boot’ this year, also six times, more than any other player in history – simply unmatched .

Ronaldo like Pogba in 2016?

Just like in the last European, that of 2016, Juve experiences the waiting competition to find out what will be the future of their star.

5 years ago the black and white executives remain anxious throughout the competition before the future of Paul Pogba was determined.

Reached the final with France, where he was defeated by Portugal and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Five years later, it is Ronaldo who keeps Juve’s market frozen, with his mind on the pitch and his staff trying to settle him away from Turin.

Different situations, but the summer of 2021 may have some analogies to what was experienced in 2016.

Pogba, after the European of France, decided his future during the holidays together with the agent Mino Raiola, between July and August.

He chose to return to Manchester United with a salary he could not refuse.

It was the most expensive transfer of the European market so far, an operation of 105 million euros, pretty good for Juventus who had received it four years ago with zero parameters.

Even the sale of Ronaldo would be positive for the financial logic of Juventus.

The player still has a one-year contract, with a net salary of 31 million euros, which costs the balance a total of 87 million euros, including fiscal obligations.

The Portuguese has not yet spoken about the future, but seems more inclined to leave Turin than in past summers.

For this reason he has given the mandate to agent Mendez to find an alternative.

PSG and Manchester United, where Pogba seems to be ending the adventure, remain valid hypotheses for the future of the footballer, who for now remains focused on defending the European title with Portugal.

He will decide on the continuation of his career later, as Pogba did in 2016.

“If Ramos were Argentine, Messi would have won a World Cup”

One of Lionel Messi’s biggest disappointments is the loss in the 2014 World Cup, but Oscar Ruggeri believes that the Barcelona star would have that precious trophy if he had Real Madrid center-back Sergio Ramos as a teammate.

The former Boca Juniors defender, who won 97 games for Argentina, believes the team lacked a player of Ramos’ caliber.

“Argentina and Messi, with Ramos means a World Cup,” Ruggeri told ESPN. “He [Ramos] is a monster.

“If Argentina had Ramos on defense, they would be world champions.

“I would like to have a player like Ramos in my national team. If we had a player like Ramos today, we would be contenders for every World Cup.

“We had good central defenders but not the best of all time. Ramos is the best. It would have been nice if he had been Argentine. He is better than me, number one. He is above all,” said Ruggeri.

Messi will have one last chance in 2022 to win the World Cup, the trophy that the Argentine is missing.
