Lionel Messi wins record seventh men's Ballon d'Or
PSG forward Lionel Messi was presented with the award on Monday night in Paris after another record-breaking 12 months for club and country; Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski - favourite for the prize in 2020 before cancellation due to Covid - came second in the vote.
Messi, who left Barcelona as a free agent to sign for Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, was presented with the award for best men's footballer in the world on Monday night in Paris after another record-breaking 12 months for club and country.
In July, the 34-year-old ended his long wait for a major international trophy by winning the Copa America with Argentina as they beat hosts Brazil in the final.
Messi shared the Player of the Tournament prize with club-mate Neymar and took home the Golden Boot after registering four goals and five assists.
