The French magazine France Football presents the annual Ballon d’Or, which is recognised as the most important individual honour in the sport.
The elite accolade was first given out in 1956, and the custom has persisted ever since. Stanley Matthews of England was the inaugural winner of the honour.
Messi and his longtime rival Cristiano Ronaldo have shared 13 times in the illustrious men’s category over the past 15 years. 14 years ago, just five years into his senior professional career, Messi took home his first Ballon d’Or.
