Joining Argentina captain Messi in the 14-member list, Manchester City
striker Julian Alvarez is the only second player from La Albiceleste, who
has been shortlisted for the prestigious Best FIFA Men’s Player award.
Messi, who propelled Argentina to its third FIFA World Cup title in Qatar
last year, has emerged as the leading candidate to lift the famous trophy
this season. Messi last won the Best FIFA Men’s Player award in 2019.
Cristiano Ronaldo failed to receive a nod on FIFA’s Best Men’s
Player shortlist. Ronaldo parted ways with Manchester United ahead of the
FIFA World Cup 2022. The former Real Madrid and Juventus star joined
Al-Nassr after a forgetful campaign in the FIFA World Cup 2022.
