Lionel Messi is the 1/4 favourite to win this year's Ballon d'Or following World Cup win
Argentina forward and superstar Lionel Messi is the 1/4 favourite with bookmakers to win his 8th Ballon d'Or award after his country won the World Cup back in December.
Messi ticked off the last major trophy in his illustrious career with that World Cup win with 42 trophies won out of the 12 competitions that he has played in.
Paddy Power make him 1/4 to win the Ballon d'Or although the awards show is not set to take place until Monday October 16 so there's plenty of time for the market to change.
| 2023 Ballon d'Or Winner | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Lionel Messi | 1/4 | 80% |
| Erling Haaland | 5/1 | 16.7% |
| Kylian Mbappe | 12/1 | 7.7% |
| Karim Benzema | 20/1 | 4.8% |
French striker Kylian Mbappe is also having a massive season and his hat-trick in the World Cup Final definitely puts him in the conversation for the award this year.
PSG and Argentina forward Lionel Messi is as short as 1/4 to win this year's Ballon d'Or after he won the World Cup with his country back in December!

Manchester City's Erling Haaland now into 5/1 second favourite to win the award
Erling Haaland moved from 10/1 to 5/1 in the betting market to win the Ballon d'Or earlier this month following a massive week for the Manchester City striker.
Haaland scored 5 goals in one match against RB Leipzig in the Champions League then bagged a hat-trick against Burnley in the FA Cup just a few days later.
This caused his odds to be halved with now a 16% chance of winning the Ballon d'Or this year according to the latest betting odds from Paddy Power.
