FAVOURITE ... Barcelona forward Lionel Messi
LIONEL MESSI will take on Cristiano Ronaldo and Andres Iniesta for the title of best player in the world.
The Spain-based trio are the final three in the race to win the FIFA Ballon d’Or award on January 7.
Barcelona superstar Messi is on track to beat Gerd Muller’s all-time record for the number of goals in a calendar year.
He is currently on 82 and needs just four more to pass the 85 scored by the Germany and
Bayern Munich striker in 1972.
The Argie ace has already beaten the second-best record of 75 — set by Brazilian legend Pele while playing for Santos in 1958.
His biggest rival is Ronaldo who despite trailing Messi in the goal-scoring stakes, was the main man in Real Madrid’s Spanish title triumph.
