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.

In addition to his club heroics, Messi has remained a pivotal figure for the Argentine national team, contributing key goals and assists in their 2024 Copa América qualification campaign. 

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.
