Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern? If you want to take home the Ballon d'Or, which club do you join?
In his public admission that he switched from Bayern Munich to Barcelona during the summer in an effort to increase his prospects of ultimately winning the Ballon d'Or, Robert Lewandowski revealed that he is on a mission to win the prize.
After a stellar stretch of play that saw him score 55 goals in 47 games as Bayern Munich stormed to a league, cup, and Champions League treble, Lewandowski spent eight tremendously successful years in Germany and was projected to win the Ballon d'Or in 2020. However, the striker was subsequently brutally denied his opportunity as the ceremony was postponed because to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The 34-year-old, who did win back-to-back men's FIFA The Best awards in 2020 and 2021 as well as the 2021 Ballon d'Or Striker of the Year award, signed for Barcelona for €45 million this summer. He has stated that his decision was at least partially influenced by a calculated plot to increase his chances of finally winning the Ballon d'Or itself.
