The former Barcelona legend Rivaldo has revealed whom he feels with win the next balon dor. Rivaldo believes that Messi has done more tha n enough to take the next balon dor even if they didnt go further in the champions league. Barcelona are currently in the semi final stages of the champions, almost lifting the Laliga and are in the finals of the cops dey rel.
“It’s impossible to describe Messi. I like him so much and I always say I feel so sad because he never won the World Cup with Argentina. It is an award he deserves because a world-class player like him must be a world champion.
“He has been scoring goals, giving assists and being the top scorer in La Liga for a long time and I think what he has been doing in the Champions League means his merits should be recognised.
“He had a chance to score a bicycle kick [versus Man Utd] but it’s not an easy one to take because you don’t get those chances often in games. It was a good effort but it didn’t quite come off.
“Even if he doesn’t win the Champions League, however, he already deserves the Ballon d’Or,” Rivaldo told Goal.
