The Argentina star had a remarkable past year when he led his nation to a third FIFA World Cup title following an enthralling final against France in Qatar. Lionel Messi then joined Inter Miami earlier this summer and led the club to their first-ever silverware, helping the MLS outfit win the Leagues Cup 2023.

Lionel Messi won the Ballon d'Or 2023 award at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris on October 31. The Argentina star won the title for a record-extending eighth time, fending off stiff competition from Manchester City's Erling Haaland, who won the treble last season. Messi was always a favourite to win the award which is considered one of the most prestigious individual honours in football after he guided Argentina to the FIFA World Cup 2022 title in Qatar.
