Barcelona star, Lionel Messi looks set to win FIFA's
prestigious Ballon d'Or title, as he beat last season's winner, Real Madrid's Cristiano
Ronaldo for a record 6 times!
Messi scored 43 goals as Barcelona won three titles last season - the Champions League, La Liga and the
Spanish Cup.
“I'm proud to receive this award ahead of so many important players in La Liga... This award in particular I want to dedicate to my son Thiago (aged
3) even if he still doesn't understand very well. Every time I leave the
house he gets angry and asks me: 'Papa, are you going again to score
goals?' This award is for him.”
Barcelona's Claudio Bravo was voted the best goalkeeper and Luis
Enrique top coach while Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos and James Rodriguez
were named best defender and midfielder respectively.
Valencia's Algerian midfielder Sofiane Feghouli was voted the top
African player and Barcelona's Brazilian striker Neymar, the best player
from the American continent.
Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored the most La Liga goals last season with 48, won the public's' choice award.
Votes for these awards are by captains of la Liga teams.
