British media 'Sports Bible' reported on the 12th (Korea time) that "it is said that Lionel Messi could have received up to 15 Ballon d'Or if he had imitated the strategy used by Cristiano Ronaldo during his active career."
Messi and Ronaldo have dominated the Ballon d'Or rankings for the past 15 years, and Messi has won eight Ballon d'Or awards. Ronaldo, on the other hand, has won five Ballon d'Or awards, and 2023 was the first year he was not nominated.
With Messi playing for Inter Miami in MLS and Ronaldo playing for Al Nasr in Saudi professional league, the era when the two players competed for the Ballon d'Or seems to be over.
Messi has won three international championship trophies in Argentina and the Ballon d'Or since December 2022, while Ronaldo showed himself bombing the league in Al-Nasr in 2023.
However, Messi and Ronaldo are now ready to disappear into history as Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham and Elling Holland usher in a new era. Given that Messi and Ronaldo have dominated the world soccer for the past century, there are very few players who can surpass their careers in the future, and it is difficult to scratch their careers.
But Manchester United legend full-back Patrice Evra said Messi could have won more Ballon d'Or if he had worked a little harder like his rival Ronaldo.
After saying that he likes Ronaldo more than Messi, Evra said on his "FIVE YouTube channel," "I want to explain why I always say Ronaldo. It's not because Ronaldo is our brother. It's because I love his walk-esque."
Evra added, "I think God gave Messi talent and Cristiano has to work on it. He was talented, but he had to try to beat Messi. If Messi had the same walk-esque as Ronaldo, he would probably have won about 15 Ballon d'Or today."
Evra finally said, "I chose Ronaldo over Messi because I like hardworking people."
