Lautaro Martinez is among the 30 finalists for the Ballon d'Or

The captain of Inter Milan is also among the 30 finalists for the France Football prize. The top scorer in the triumphs of Inter Milan and Argentina, 'Toro' spoke about it after the last victory of Albiceleste.

Captain and top scorer of the last Serie A, celebrating the second star of Inter Milan, but not only. 

In 2024, Lautaro Martinez won the Copa America as a bomber with Argentina, another milestone achieved in summer for a season as a protagonist. And the right recognition is his nomination among the 30 finalists of the 2024 Ballon d'Or, which, 21 years later, will not see either Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo among the possible winners. 

No Italian among the candidates for the prize, but to support the 'Toro' from Serie A there are also his teammate Calhanoglu, Lookman and neo-romanists Dovbyk and Hummels.

The competition of Bellingham, Haaland and Mbappé is terrible, as well as Rodri and Vinicius, but Lautaro will still be in Paris and he’s ready to play his cards. 

He just repeated it in the national.
The captain of Inter Milan and Argentina’s bomber spoke about it after his team’s 3-0 victory against Chile in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup: "Ballon d'Or? For the season I have earned merit to be where I am, also because in previous years I worked hard and suffered a lot. 

This is the second time in a row that I have attended this ceremony, I think I am ready to compete for this recognition". And we will see him again in Paris on 28 October.
