Messi IG Update
“I just want to thank everyone around the world who has supported me so much throughout my career. I want to use a special way to dedicate this award to everyone and to my family, who have always been by my side.
I also want to share this Golden Ball with my teammates, coaching staff, staff at the Argentine national team… because without the World Cup, we would not have been able to win these awards together.
Congratulations to all the winners and thank you so much!”
