Following Lionel Messi’s World Cup win with Argentina, the 35-year-old is being tipped to become just the second footballer in history to win the Super Ballon d’Or.

As things stand, Real Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stéfano remains the only recipient after helping Real Madrid win five consecutive European Cups in the 1950s.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SUPER BALLON D’OR AND THE BALLON D’OR?

image

  • The Ballon d’Or is presented annually to the best footballer of the past year, voted by football journalists.

  • Conceived by sports writers Gabriel Hanot and Jacques Ferran, the award has been presented by France Football since 1956.

  • Originally, it was only for European footballers and was known as the European Footballer of the Year award. However, in 1995, it was expanded to include all players from any origin that have been active at European clubs.

  • Stanley Matthews of England was the first Ballon d’Or winner, with Karim Benzema the most recent recipient after scoring 44 goals in 46 games to help Real Madrid win the UEFA Champions League in 2021/22.

  • Messi has won the Ballon d’Or on seven occasions – the most of any footballer in history.

  • In stark contrast, there has only ever been one Super Ballon d’Or presented, while there has been a Ballon d’Or handed out every year since 1956.

  • As aforesaid, it was Di Stéfano who received the incredibly rare prize back in 1989, as an honorary award from France Football to commemorate the greatest footballer of the past three decades.
