    In a fan’s calculation of the “Super Ballon d’Or,” Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are ranked alongside other legends. Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have been ranked.
    Alfredo Di Stefano received this highly prestigious award only once in its history, in 1989.
    Notably, the super award, which was only open to European players, was given out by France Football magazine to celebrate its 30th anniversary. Di Stefano, a legend at Real Madrid who held Spanish citizenship and was chosen over Johan Cruyff and Michel Platini, took home the trophy.

    However, some fans are of the opinion that the unique award ought to be reinstated in order to honor the best player of the current era. Naturally, this will include superstars like Ronaldo and Messi.
    The list was compiled and calculated by a Reddit enthusiast based solely on players’ Ballon d’Or performances since 1990. It should come as no surprise that Messi, who has won seven Ballons d’Or, leads the list, with Ronaldo just behind him in second place.

    Fans have debated and been surprised by the rankings, with some arguing that some players should be higher or lower on the list.

    Here is the list (via Sport Bible):

    1. Lionel Messi
    2. Cristiano Ronaldo
    3. Ronaldo Nazario
    4. Zinedine Zidane
    5. Andriy Shevchenko
    6. Roberto Baggio & Lothar Matthäus
    7. Hristo Stoichkov
    8. Robert Lewandowski
    9. Ronaldinho
    10. Rivaldo
    11. Kaka
    12. Luis Figo & Luka Modric
    13. Thierry Henry
    14. Andres Iniesta & Matthias Sammer
    15. Karim Benzema & Michael Owen
    16. Pavel Nedved
    17. Marco van Basten, Jean-Pierre Papin , George Weah , Fabio Cannavaro & Xavi Hernandez
    18. Dennis Bergkamp
    19. Neymar
    20. Raul
    21. Paolo Maldini.
    22. Jurgen Klinsmann, David Beckham & Gianluigi Buffon.
    23. Roberto Carlos
    24. Sadio Mane
    25. Davor Suker & Dejan Savićevic
    26. Darko Pančev, Salvatore Schillaci, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Deco, Predrag Mijatović, Oliver Kahn, Frank Lampard , Antoine Griezmann & Virgil van Dijk
    27. Didier Drogba & Kylian Mbappe
    28. Steven Gerrard, Kevin De Bruyne & Mo Salah
    29. Iker Casillas, Andrea Pirlo & Samuel Eto’o
    30. Luis Suarez, Jari Litmanen , Eric Cantona , Alessandro Del Piero & Gabriel Batistuta

    There is no assurance that a Super Ballon d’Or will be awarded this time around. Luis Suarez, Jari Litmanen, Eric Cantona, Alessandro Del Piero, and Gabriel Batistuta But if France Football goes ahead with it, it won’t come as a surprise if Messi wins because the legend has won seven Ballons d’Or.

    Robert Lewandowski has backed Lionel Messi to beat Cristiano Ronaldo and others to another Ballon d’Or award

    Barcelona forward Robert Lewandowski has openly supported Blaugrana legend Lionel Messi as the potential winner of this season’s Ballon d’Or award. He has backed Messi to beat Cristiano Ronaldo and others to another award. According to the Polish striker, the Argentine playmaker’s blistering performances at the FIFA World Cup would be crucial to winning the award.
    Lewandowski admitted to El Mundo Deportivo that there is now a clear favorite:

    “That’s right. There might be one more player who plays for the same team, but there is only one World Cup that determines who will win it this season. Leo is certain to be at the top because of what he has accomplished, which means everything to him. He can now relish it.“

    This season, Ronaldo is almost certainly out of the running for the Ballon d’Or. After Manchester United terminated his contract, he is now free to sign elsewhere.
