Last year, Luca Modric won the Ballon d'Or stopping the long-time reign of Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo. This year, no one can boldly nominate one person that might win without having a biased mind. There is a big controversy in people's minds over who would likely win the Ballon d'Or. Lionel Messi won the FIFA player award, but that doesn’t guarantee an automatic Ballon d'Or victory. However, he stands a good chance to be among the last three. We can be so sure of the winner, but we can keep predicting. The thirty men list of likely Ballon d'Or winners is listed below.
