Robert Lewandowski still hopes to win the Ballon d'Or. Lewandowski won the Quadruple in 2020, but the Ballon d'Or ceremony wasn't held due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"I had the best years of my career in 2020 and 2021. A friend recently sent me statistics: I scored 100 goals in 85 games," he said.
"Of course, I would have loved to receive the Ballon d'Or award at some point. The one from 2021 belongs to Lionel Messi.
"I've heard there are rumours that the 2020 Ballon d'Or could still be awarded belatedly. That year was outstanding for me, I was at my highest level, and we won everything...
"Let's put it this way: if I were to receive the 2020 Ballon d'Or four years later, I certainly wouldn't be offended, it would be a great honour and I would accept the award."
