Ex-Barcelona Player Omits Gaml and Messi from Ballon d'Or
Louis Vigo revealed the list of the top contenders for the Ballon d'Or after the Spanish national team’s victory at the 2026 World Cup, excluding Barcelona's young star Lamine Jamal and Argentine Lionel Messi despite their outstanding performances. The list includes Spain midfielder Rodri, who won the Best Player award at the tournament and is considered one of the top contenders to win the Ballon d'Or for the second time. Also featured is Frenchman Kylian Mbappé, whose individual achievements last year increased his chances despite not winning a major title with his club or national team. The nominations also included Duje Dovine and Portuguese Vitaína, praised for their performances even though their participation in the World Cup was not at the expected level. These selections reflect how individual performance and achievements throughout the year influence the chances of winning the award.
