The final three have been announced for the 2015 Ballon d’Or, and there are few surprises.
Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have shared the award between them every year since Kaka’s victory in 2007, and there is a two in three chance that the run will continue.
But there is also a new name on the list, with young pretender Neymar in the running to be named the world’s greatest.
We asked you to let us know who should win in Zurich on January 11, and here’s what you said.
Messi was the most popular choice
And at the very least, many of you thought it has to be one of two men
Neymar has had a great 2015/16, but has he been at the same level as Messi and Ronaldo for the whole calendar year?
He’s ahead of Ronaldo in our Twitter poll…
Go on then, who should win the Ballon d'Or?
