The leader of Miami's "Inter" team, Lionel Messi, has his favorite in the "Ballon d'Or" voting.

According to the world champion, this honor is deserved by his compatriot and Inter Milan sniper Lautaro Martinez.

"This year has been incredible for him. Lautaro scored a goal in the Copa America final, and on top of that, he was the most prolific player of the tournament.

He deserves the ball more than any other footballer," explained L. Messi.

In addition to winning the Copa America title, L. Martinez also triumphed in the Serie A championship.

The winner of the prestigious trophy will be announced on October 28 in Paris.
