Could this be a disguised tackle on Lionel Messi? Still, the Ballon d’Or has lost its value according to CR7.
During his career, Cristiano Ronaldo won the Ballon d’Or five times. His last coronation dates back to 2017. Since then, this distinction would no longer have the same value according to the Portuguese striker.
“I think these awards are, in a way, losing their credibility. I just don’t believe in these awards anymore and it’s not because I won the Globe Soccer Awards, but it’s a fact. The numbers are there and the numbers don’t lie, they can’t take away this award (top scorer in the world in 2023) because it is real, and that makes me very happy because the numbers prove reality.confided the former Real Madrid star during an interview given to the Lusitanian media Record.

For many years, Cristiano Ronaldo seemed to be obsessed with individual awards, such as the FIFA: The Best trophy or the Ballon d’Or. This would no longer be the case. “I’m used to it and I know how these organizations work. I always give priority to my club and the national team. The individual awards come after a good season with club and national team. And honestly, I don’t think about it much.”assures the Al-Nassr Football Club player, author of 54 goals in 2023.
