With this Monday’s award, Argentine Lionel Messi equaled Pelé’s record as the biggest winner of the Golden Ball. Messi had already won the trophy in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2015 and 2019.

Pelé only won decades after his career ended. In 2016, France Football published a revised list of winners, adopting the current award criteria, open to players of any nationality, operating around the world. With the review, Pelé won the so-called alternative award in 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1963, 1964 and 1970.
