Not Lionel Messi: Only two Argentine players among the 2025 Ballon d’Or nominees

Two Argentine players are in contention for the 2025 Ballon d’Or ― but surprisingly, Lionel Messi is not one of them.

Lionel Messi is not among the nominees for the 2025 Ballon d’Or, failing to make the cut for the second year in a row ― just like Cristiano Ronaldo. Instead, two Argentine teammates are in consideration for the prize.

Lautaro Martinez and Alexis Mac Allister are the only Argentine representatives in the shortlist for the award given to the best male player of the season.
