Will there be a "Golden Ball" for the best striker in the world Lewandowski?
France Football editor-in-chief Pascal Ferre commented on Lionel Messi's words during his Ballon d'Or ceremony on Monday.
The Argentine said in his speech that it is right for Robert Lewandowski to receive the same award for the last 2020.
There was no vote then due to the coronavirus pandemic, and the Bayern striker was considered the favorite.
- What Messi said was good and smart. But I do not think we should make such decisions too quickly. We should refer to the history of the "Golden Ball", which has always been based on the voting process.
We can not be sure that Lewandowski would have won the "Golden Ball" last year. We can not know for sure, because there was no voting at all. But, honestly, Lewandowski would have great chances for the award - said Ferre.
