Pope Francis picks 2016's Best Player

His holiness, Pope Francis has given his personal opinion on who he thinks is the best footballer in the world and his choice really is suprising and will cause relief amid the fans of him. The Pope was asked by Sports media who he believes is the best player in the world and this is what he said: ‘For me, Lionel Messi,’ said Pope. 

Cristiano Ronaldo and his millions of fans will certainly disagree with the Pope's own opinion. Supporters of Messi across the world will hope the Argenine will win his sixth Ballon d'Or because of the help he recieves along the way.
