Lionel Messi says Sadio Mane should have ranked higher Ballon d’Or rankings

Lionel Messi has expressed his dissatisfaction after the Liverpool forward Sadio Mane finished fourth in the Ballon d’Or rankings earlier this week.

Lionel Messi won the Ballon d’Or for the sixth time in his career in Paris on Monday, after topping Virgil van Dijk and Cristiano Ronaldo to claim the Award. Sadio Mane came fourth while Mohamed Salah was placed in fifth.



Messi who voted Mane as his preferred candidate for The Best award, has now praised the Liverpool forward, saying It’s a shame to see that he finished fourth in the Ballon d’Or ranking.

‘It’s a shame to see Mane finish in fourth place,’ Messi told Canal+.

‘But I think there have been a lot of great players this year. That’s why it was difficult to choose a particular player. But I chose Sadio Mane (for The Best award) because he’s a player that I like.

‘Mane achieved a great year that was exceptional for the entire Liverpool team. That’s why I chose him.
‘I repeat, there were a lot of very great players this year, so the choice was difficult.’
