Erling Haaland of Manchester City, Victor Osimhen of Napoli, and Lionel Messi of PSG all reached the top ten list of candidates for the next Ballon d’Or award.<\/p>\n

Lionel Messi, a seven-time winner of the Ballon d’Or<\/a>, is listed in the most recent ranking for May 2023, which was determined by selections made by a committee of international journalists, coaches, and national team leaders.<\/p>\n

Individual player award nominees were carefully chosen based on their outstanding play at their respective club teams up until the very last moments of the 2022\u201323 season.<\/p>\n

WITHIN NIGERIA<\/strong>\u00a0understands that the Ballon d\u2019Or is presented to the best football player in the world, as voted by a select panel of international journalists, coaches and captains of national teams.<\/p>\n

Below are the Ballon d\u2019Or Power Rankings for May 2023, according to Sportskeeda.<\/p>\n

1. Erling Haaland \u2013 Manchester City<\/strong><\/p>\n

Manchester City is hoping for a continental treble at the end of the ongoing campaigns. The club has already won the\u00a0English Premier League<\/strong>\u00a0(EPL) 2022\/2023 title.<\/p>\n

Should the treble thing happen, Haaland, who has been instrumental to the club\u2019s match winnings, would likely be awarded Ballon d\u2019Or.<\/p>\n

The Norway professional player has been a goal-scoring machine for\u00a0Pep Guardiola<\/strong>\u2018s side since he joined Etihad.<\/p>\n

Haaland was the top scorer in this season\u2019s EPL. He has 52 goals and nine assists in 51 appearances.<\/p>\n

2. Lionel Messi \u2013 Paris Saint-Germain<\/strong><\/p>\n

The seven times Ballon d\u2019Or winner fought tirelessly to ensure his country Argentina won the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.<\/p>\n

Though Messi made it to the list of favourite winners, his chances are in contention as the Argentine National team captain\u2019s club side, PSG could not make it to the Champions League final this season.<\/p>\n

Messi has scored 20 goals and provided 20 assists in 39 appearances across all competitions for PSG so far this season.<\/p>\n

3. Kylian Mbappe \u2013 Paris Saint-Germain [PSG]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another exceptional player from PSG hoping for the Ballon d\u2019Or is Kylian Mbappe.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old player has had an exceptional season with PSG. He has so far netted 40 goals and provided nine assists in 41 appearances across all competitions.<\/p>\n

The Frenchman also scored a hat-trick in the World Cup final for France against Argentina late last year. He won the Golden Boot at the World Cup and is on the brink of winning another Ligue 1 title with PSG.<\/p>\n

4. Victor Osimhen \u2013 Napoli<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Nigeria professional football and Super Eagles star also made the list of Ballon d\u2019Or favourites.<\/p>\n

Osimhen helped Napoli win their first Serie A title in 33 years. The Nigerian player has burgeoned into one of the best strikers on the planet.<\/p>\n

Osimhen has scored 28 goals and provided five assists in 37 appearances across all competitions.<\/p>\n

5. Kevin De Bruyne \u2013 Manchester City<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Belgium international has made an incredible 28 assists and scored 10 goals in 47 appearances so far this season. De Bruyne has established himself as one of the greatest midfielders of the modern era.<\/p>\n

If things go as planned, De Bruyne will be an Intercontinental treble winner at the end of the season. And there is every chance the 31-year-old will make the Ballon d\u2019Or podium this year.<\/p>\n

Others in the top 10 Ballon d\u2019Or ranking for May 2023 include:<\/p>\n

6. Robert Lewandowski \u2013 Barcelona<\/p>\n

7. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia \u2013 Napoli<\/p>\n

8. Ilkay Gundogan \u2013 Manchester City<\/p>\n

9. Vinicius Junior \u2013 Real Madrid<\/p>\n

10. Jude Bellingham of Borussia Dortmund<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
