Real Madrid Star, Cristiano Ronaldo has won his fifth Ballon d’Or award.
The Ballon d’Or 2017 awards took place in Paris on Thursday night.
Real Madrid star Ronaldo was the big favourite to win after helping his club to La Liga and Champions League glory in 2017.
Ronaldo won the award last year and also took the top prize in 2013 and 2014. Messi took top honours in 2015.
The 32-year-old Ronaldo was earlier named ‘best men’s player’ at FIFA’s awards ceremony last month — and he’ll be hoping to scoop the top gong in Paris today.
