In Messi’s vote, Lamine Yamal was chosen as number 1, followed by another young talent of Barcelona, center back Pau Cubarsi and fellow Argentine player playing for MU, striker Alejandro Garnacho.

Ronaldo (Brazil) chose Savinho (currently playing for Man City, last season with Girona) as number 1, followed by Lamine Yamal and Arda Guler (Real Madrid). However, other famous players who have won the Golden Ball and are still playing such as Karim Benzema and Luka Modric have the same choice as Messi, when voting Lamine Yamal as number 1.
