that’s just a stupid ass statement. players like cristiano, leo, etc think it’s meaningful. it’s literally the highest individual award for a footballer.

even cristiano in his recent piers morgan interview says he deserved 8 ballons d’or.

It's meaningless in the sense that its voting system isnt serious and making it a popularity contest. It has no real merit.

It's meaningful to players because it has a lot of exposure and is good for their brand.
