The official race for the new Golden Ball begins today. Indeed, today France Football will publish the definitive list of the 30 candidates for the final victory of the award most coveted by every soccer player. Journalists representing the top 100 countries in the Fifa ranking will then vote and determine the final ranking.

Among the great favorites for the title is quoted Lautaro Martinez, winner of four titles last season: two team and two individual. The Argentine striker managed to lift two trophies with Inter and Argentina, namely the Scudetto and the Copa America. At the same time, the Nerazzurri captain won the title of top scorer both in the league with the Nerazzurri and with the Albiceleste shirt last summer.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Lautaro will definitely be in the top 10 for what will become his best personal result in the Golden Ball ranking after the twentieth place in the past edition. Compared to the other two favorites Vinicius and Bellingham, the Argentine managed to triumph with his National team. The two of Real Madrid, however, can boast the victory of the Champions League.
