according to the French newspaper L’equipe, the award by the end of this year, which makes France Football, will not take place for the first time in the history of the “Golden ball”.

the Reason for this decision was the pandemic coronavirus, for which the season was interrupted. The publication has decided that this year it is impossible to fully assess the performances of the players. In the end, decided that in 2021, the prize will return again, unless, of course, will not happen a new outbreak of the disease.

Since the beginning of the award in 1956, this was the first year when there will be named the best player in the world. In 2019, this prize went to the captain of “Barcelona” and the Argentina national team Lionel Messi.
