Argentine forward and football star, Lionel Messi has secured yet another nomination for The Best FIFA Men’s Player Award in 2024. 

At 37 years old, Messi’s extraordinary performances on the pitch have earned him a spot among football’s elite, solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest players of all time.

This nomination follows a year marked by remarkable achievements. 

<strong>The 2024 list</strong>

After leading Argentina to World Cup glory in December 2022, Messi went to Inter Miami in Major League Soccer (MLS) in mid-2023. 

Following this transition, Messi quickly silenced critics by delivering dazzling performances, including a stunning campaign in the Leagues Cup, where he led Inter Miami to their first-ever trophy. 

His influence on and off the pitch has rejuvenated MLS, drawing record crowds and global attention to the league.

This latest nomination marks the continuation of an illustrious career that has seen Messi win the award multiple times, alongside countless Ballon d’Or titles.
