It had been reported that Lionel Messi would be attending the FIFA Best Awards despite not being nominated for Best Men’s Player, but now he won’t be at the awards.
Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo who has scored his club’s first goal in the game against Frosinone (0-2) will snub The Best FIFA Football Awards ceremony on Monday.
Ronaldo will simply be staying in Turin to rest up for those games. Messi, meanwhile, will not be attending due to family reasons, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The CR7 was expected to defend his The Best FIFA Men’s player crown, alongside Mohamed Salah and Luka Modric.
