Robert Lewandowski’s vote for the world football player 2021 – Bayern Munich star beat Lionel Messi and Mohamed Salah

When the traditional Ballon d’Or was awarded in November, Messi was relegated to Lewandowski.

Munich’s top scorer broke the “eternal” record in the Bundesliga season, the legendary “bomber” Gerd Muller in the 1971/72 season with 41 goals last season. In 2021, he was also better than Muller in 1972 with a total of 43 goals.

Lewandowski was the first professional from the German Bundesliga last year to receive the honor of the world footballer. The only German winner at the premiere in 1991 was Lothar Matthaus (Inter Milan). In 2020, Lewandowski defeated Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

The coaches and captains of all national teams, one journalist from each country and fans have the right to vote in the FIFA elections.
