This year's Ballon d'Or prize is proving far harder to predict than in previous seasons, with Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo not the outright favorites as has become customary over the last decade or so.
There are many more names in
the mix this time, like Chelsea midfielder Jorginho and Real Madrid striker
Karim Benzema.
However, a leaked image has
surfaced on social media which has Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski as
the winner.
In the aforementioned image,
the Pole leads the list with 627 votes, Messi is in second place and Karim
Benzema comes in third.
Cristiano Ronaldo appears down
in ninth and Luka Modric is 12th. The highest ranked Spaniard is Barcelona's
Pedri, who is 18th, surpassing Neymar by one place.
The pair who is tipped to
dominate world football over the next decade, Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland,
are sixth and eighth respectively.

Something similar happened in
2018 when Luka Modric won the Ballon d'Or, where a list was leaked that got
each position spot on.
The result for 2021 is
already decided, because the voting has closed, so now it remains to be seen
whether this list will prove to be correct on November 29 when the results are
announced.
