at the end of the UEFA Nation League Final match, Ronaldo was interviewed about the Ballon D'Or and Ronaldo did not want to talk about it, he had not thought about that possibility and would focus on thinking about next season.

guys, in the Portugal match against Swiss C. Ronaldo scored a hattrick and brought Portugal to the final party. is it if Ronaldo is able to bring Portugal to the championship in this match do you think there are still opportunities for Ronaldo to win the Ballon D'oR?

Yeah, I had the same question. If Portugal wins the UEFA Nations League and if he becomes instrumental in the finals, he should be back in contention for the Ballon D'or award again.
I have asked a lot of this and the results stated that if Ronaldo won the final match he still could not get the Ballon D'oR because other candidates like Van Dijk still favorites.

Regardless of the fact that Barcelona had a very embarrassing outing at the second leg of the semi finals meeting with Liverpool at anfield and bowed out if the tournament and still lost the final of the copa Del Rey final. Individual no one deserves the award than Leo Messi. He has the highest individual statistics than any other player this season and also has LA liga title so my best pick would be him
It would be very unfair for me if Messi gets the Ballon D'Or because there are still many other candidates who also appear impressive this season. but if Messi gets it I think it's time for UEFA to change regulations on how to determine which player deserves the title of the best player.
I think Messi is not the right person to get the Ballon D'Or this year. I strongly agree that there are many other candidates besides Messi. Indeed, for individuals Messi nothing can match Messi. So for Messi, there will be no Ballon D'Or title for now.
yes, I think this year will be different. maybe this year the Ballon D'oR will be a defender or midfielder. Van dijk is still a favorite player for this.

Hmm, this is difficult question. Let's see my list:
- Ronaldo
- Messi
- Neymar
Failed at UCL and WC so a big no.

- van Dijk, potential UCL winner
A defender.

- Modric, WC runner up
- Hazard, WC 3rd pos, good EPL stats
No trophies

- Mbappe, WC & Ligue 1 winner, Ligue 1 top goalscorer
- Salah, EPL top goalscorer & potential UCL winner
So between these two strikers, I would recommend Mbappe Smiley

World cup was last year, it has nothing to do with this year's winner.
The only competition that will be looked at is the Champion's League and maybe the Copa America.
So the winner should be from a top team or a player who has been way better than the others.
Messi is the Soulier d'Or, he won La Liga and went in the semis in the CL.
He's the clear favorite.

Behind him, it should be between Ronaldo, Mbappe, Van Dijck, Hazard (who could win the Europa League), Salah. I also believe someone like De Ligt (best player in the Dutch League) should be close. Same for Mane.
I agree with the names of the strikers you mentioned, but for defenders I think there is very little chance of getting the Ballon D'or, we can see a few years before none of the defenders were candidates.

My shortlist for this would most likely be;

- Lionel Messi (He has garnered 51 goals and 15 assists in 3 competitions, and still has to play Copa Americas. If they win here, it will catapult him to a very high chance to win Ballon D' Or)
- Mo Salah (He has 26 goals and 8 assists in all competitions. Been instrumental in Liverpool despite recent injuries. He is also set to play for Egypt in the AFCON, with Egypt being one of the teams to watch)
- Sadio Mane (Has 26 goals and one assist in all competitions. Equaled his teammate, Salah's goal tally in lesser games. One of Liverpool's key players as well this year along with Salah. Will be playing in AFCON for Senegal)

Now, this is just my top 3 shortlist. Mane and Salah has equal chances of ousting Messi if either one of them wins their conference cups for their respective countries. However, if Lionel Messi wins it for Argentina, he will most likely solidify his position as the top rated player this year for the Ballon D'Or trophy due to him having a fantastic season this year with Barcelona.
I like the way you describe opinions like this. thank you for your opinion, from your opinion all those who read this also get information from the statistics of each player you choose is not just an assumption without data.

The Champions League is almost over, the interesting thing to talk about next is Who will get the Ballon D'or trophy? We know before that the strong candidates for the title are Lionel Messi & De Jong because the Barcelona and Ajax teams have the chance to win Trible but now Barcelona & Ajax are not competing in the UCL Finals. Who do you think the decent players will get the best player title?
I really appreciate de Jong's performance in the Champions league, he can bring Ajax to the semifinals, and that is already very good in my opinion, seeing the material of ajax players is not as good as other teams. but it was too early for De jong to win the Ballon d'or, many other players were more deserving of it. If Mo Salah can bring Liverpool win the champions league, he is be the best candidates for , me, they have top score at Premiere League, managed to bring Liverpool win champions, who else more better than him?
Yes, this season De Jong brought Ajax to win 2 domestic trophies. He is indeed one of the strong candidates to get the Ballon D'Or if Mane or Mo Salah failed to win the Champions League this year.

I think Ronaldo may get it just because he is getting way older to keep up with this great performances, I mean he can't continue to play like this for the next couple of seasons and we will see some drop. Until that happens dude moved to Juventus, made the team win the league, win the cup, go to champions league quarter finals and played his heart out at his age and still lead the Italian league (famous for less goals scored compared to rest of the European leagues) with god knows how many goals for a long time.

He showed that with a different team and a different system in a different situation he was still the leader and best player even at his passing age. That is why this could be his last trophy. Maybe they will give one to Messi next year to tie them together and then move on to next generation players.
I think Ronaldo will not get the title this year because there are still many other candidates who are more feasible than Ronaldo to get the Ballon D'Or. If Ronaldo is chosen as the winner of the Ballon D'or, I think football fans will be very disappointed with UEFA.

Haha, the point you want is "Salah" who has to get the title. whoever gets it this year I will agree as long as it's not between Ronaldo & Messi because I'm already tired of the best football players only between those two people.
You are right! among those strong candidates, I think Salah is the strongest one and I want him to take the trophy this year. Don't you realize that England Teams are so strong this year?
yes I also know that, this year's Premier League team dominates in Europe. even the final UEL & UCL final match all came from the English team. I can't wait for the Final match because in that match there will definitely be a very epic game.

Messi and Ronaldo are absolutely still everyone's favourite, even both were not playing so well in my opinion, but they deserve to be candidates. For this year, I personally wish Salah will win the Ballon d'Or. He played better than most top players in this whole season.
Salah & Mane, these two players have the opportunity to compete for the Ballon D'Or. It would be a good thing if in these 2 years you will get the title not from Ronaldo or Messi.
But both have the last and most important challenge to pass, Final UCL. If they successfully winning UCL then it adds more chance for them to get Ballon d'Or Trophy. Oh, there are a lot other strong candidates too, but I don't really care. I want Salah to win this trophy.

So between these two strikers, I would recommend Mbappe Smiley
My take is on van Dijk, potential UCL winner if Liverpool eventually wins UCL this guy had been solid all through the season despite being a defender he also launches attacks and a threat to their opponent.
Recalled Canavarro of Italy also won a ballon D'or despite being a defender both messi and ronaldo had not been impressive this season thus both do not merit it. Sarah was impressive last season but this season he was a shadow of former self.
Mbappe though is a good goal scorer for PSG but having crashed out of UCL in quarter final by an injury ravaged MAN UTD team was out of contention.
Agree, a defender is also worthy of getting the Ballon D'or title because of the struggles throughout the season well, even though Liverpool did not get a treble but at least van Dijk and Liverpool were able to perform well in EPL and CL. Nothing prevents him if Liverpool are able to get the CL title this season most likely van Dijk will get it.
