The South American expressed his excitement after he was given the trophy by David Beckham on Monday, October 30, 2023. According to him, each one of the awards he has won meant something special to him and for different reasons.
“It’s nice to be here once more to enjoy this moment. To be able to win the World Cup and achieve my dream. I could not imagine having the career I’ve had and everything I’ve achieved, the fortune I’ve had to be part of the best team in history. All of them [Ballon d’Or awards] are special for different reasons.”
