‘Leaked’ Ballon D’or List Reveals Robert Lewandowski As Winner by fergie001(op): 7:17pm On Oct 27, 2021

A leaked image of the 2021 Ballon d’Or has surfaced on social media which has Bayern Munich Polish striker Robert Lewandowski as the winner.

In the aforementioned image, Lewandowski leads the list with 627 votes, PSG star Lionel Messi is in second place and Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema is in third.

Cristiano Ronaldo is 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 are 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.

Leaked 2021 Ballon d’Or list:

Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich)
Leo Messi (PSG)
Karim Benzema (Real Madrid)
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
Jorginho (Chelsea)
Kylian Mbappé (PSG)
N’ Golo Kanté (Chelsea)

The best news I read today, I wholeheartedly hope it's true, he sure deserves it but another purported 'leaked image" has Ronaldo as the clear winner

List is likely fake. Previous Ballon dor leaks have always come out only few days to the event. This one has come out with over one month left to the award day (Nov 29) especially when the voting just ended this week.

Again not all previous leaks turned out to be accurate so make all these anti-Messi people calm down.

Lewy is a fantastic player and deserves a Ballon dor in his career but Messi na GOAT.

Would have loved Jorginho to win it.

He had a terrific year.

The Polish striker has scored 17 goals in 13 games so far this season with jaw-dropping averages of a goal every 52 minutes in the Champions League and 72 minutes in the Bundesliga.

Messi is yet to set the world alight at PSG but still has plenty of credit from his last season at Barcelona, which saw him hit 38 goals with 14 assists in all competitions.

Tbh, Ronaldo is 9th because he is CR7. He should be outside of it.
