Lionel Messi was not happy after receiving a nomination for an award that he has never received and that nobody wants to win.
Messi has won nearly everything imaginable on a football ground, making him one of the best players of all time, and his trophy cabinet proves it according to Talk Sport.
Almost everything, actually, since the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner is currently a nominee for the ESLAND Awards 2024’s Anger of the Year category.
Don’t worry if you’ve never heard of the ESLAND Awards; they are an annual celebration of Spanish-speaking content artists, and Messi made it onto the shortlist last year following an outburst.
Following his eighth Ballon d’Or victory in October, Messi took a jab at Spanish streamer Ibai Llanos.
The Argentina international charged that the Twitch celebrity, who is close friends with Messi’s friends Sergio Aguero and Gerard Pique, had betrayed his confidence by disclosing personal information.
While speaking to Llanos after winning the Ballon d’Or, he smiled as he said: “I’m not going to answer you anymore because you make everything public.”
“I don’t like it… The Ballon d’Or? Now you are changing the topic you son of a b****.”
Even though Messi’s remarks were lighthearted, it was still a somewhat stunning moment for a guy who is always so composed and placid in interviews.
And it has garnered him a nomination for Anger of the Year at the ESLAND Awards, which is selected by public votes.
