The 2024 edition of the Balón de Oro, just realized in Paris, marks a significant change in the history of the Galardón: 21 years ago, between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, there were no 30 nominees for the award for the best football in the world. This is symbolized The end of an era As the two Astros dominate the secular football scene, they join them 13 trophies since 2008. In rotation, new talents such as Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappé, Erling Haaland and Harry Kane emerged as main candidates to fight with the Galardón, which competed on June 16 and was broadcast live in Argentina by TNT Sports Premium.

Last year, when the first two cracks were added to the list in 2003. After turning the competence into a duel, Logrando was chosen as 16 nominee by Messi, with other trophies to his name, and 18 by Cristiano, who left the five Balones de Oro. Without the embargo, the time went into the league of the European elite; Messi in the MLS with Inter Miami and Cristiano in the Arabia Saudita Pro League. We further ask for a selection of papers that are excluded from the list of proposed candidates A natural transition in their travels and competing on price.
