Barcelona’s Luis Suarez has been officially included in the shortlist for the Ballon d’Or award. Suarez is no stranger to being included in the nominee list, however he has yet to make it to the final three of the award.

The other Barcelona player on the list is, of course, Lionel Messi who will be taking a shot at his sixth Ballon d’Or trophy.

Messi has already won the award more than any other player, but Cristiano Ronaldo is hot on his trail with four wins. Ronaldo will likely be the betting favorite after winning the Champions League.
