Bola.net – Coach Manchester City Josep Guardiola said Erling Haaland deserved to win Ballon d’Or 2023 and suggested that the award be divided into two categories, one of which was specifically for Lionel Messi.

Many players have won the Ballon d’Or. There are those who win more than once or twice.

There is also someone who has won five times, namely Cristiano Ronaldo. But there has never been a player as dominant as Messi.

He has collected seven prestigious individual awards. And now there’s a chance he could expand his collection to eight.

Apart from Erling Haaland, there is also the name Lionel Messi. According to Josep Guardiola, the Ballon d’Or award should be divided into two categories.

One special category for Messi. Meanwhile other categories are for the general public.

“The Ballon d’Or must consist of two parts. One for Messi, and after that, look for another,” said Guardiola.

“Messi’s worst season is the best for any other season,” said Guardiola.
