Cristiano Ronaldo Criticizes Credibility of Ballon d’Or and FIFA The Best Awards

Football legend Cristiano Ronaldo says the Ballon d’Or and FIFA The Best award have lost their credibility. The star’s criticism was in an interview given to a Portuguese newspaper after receiving the award at the Global Football Awards ceremony in Dubai.

I think in a way these awards are losing credibility. We have to analyze the whole season. This is not to say that Messi, Hollande or Mbappe do not deserve it. I don’t believe in these awards anymore.

Not because I won Globe Soccer. But these are facts, figures, and figures don’t lie. “They can’t take the trophy of these numbers from me because it’s a reality, so it makes me even happier because my numbers are true,” Ronaldo said.

Argentinian star Lionel Messi has recently won both of these awards, but Ronaldo’s criticism has opened the way for many discussions. Messi won both awards behind Manchester City’s Norwegian player Erling Haaland and PSG’s French player Kylian Mbappe.

At the same time, Al Nasr star Cristiano Ronaldo became the top scorer in the calendar year 2023. Ronaldo scored 54 goals in 2023.
