Messi Super Ballon d'Or 2027 talk

Picture Lionel Messi with the Super Ballon d'Or in his hands.

What makes the chatter interesting is the history: it's only been handed out once, back in 1989, to Alfredo Di Stéfano for a career that spoke for itself. Messi's own case doesn't need much building. 8 Ballon d'Or awards. World champion. A career full of titles and records. If the prize does return, the grounds for him chasing another historic chapter are strong. So can you actually see it happening?
