In an interview with Sky Sport Italia a few hours before the Ballon d'Or 2021 ceremony, FC Barcelona right-back Dani Alves returned to the news of his former club, Juventus Turin, but also of his choice for the individual reward. And the Brazilian international would have liked to award it to Danish attacking midfielder Christian Eriksen, evoking the episode during Euro 2021 .
“I think Eriksen deserves the Ballon d'Or this year, given what he's been through. It would be a strong message for everyone in football, people would have more sensitivity, it would mean going above and beyond. Messi is the best, he has been for 20 years, but it would be good for everyone if Eriksen won him, ” he told Italian television from Monte Carlo.
