All the talk has been of Barca's Lionel Messi unseating United's Cristiano Ronaldo as The Best Player in the World. However there is word today that some are thinking that Bayern striker Luca Toni could steal the Ballon d'Or if Germany win Euro 2008.
According to Goal.com:
"Cristiano Ronaldo is currently the red hot favourite to win the prestigious prize following a prolific season for Manchester United, during which he has scored 38 goals so far. However there are reports in the Italian peninsula that Toni could win the prize if the Azzurri were to emerge victorious at Euro 2008. The 30-year-old is having an equally stunning campaign for Bayern Munich, and is the top scorer in the Bundesliga and the UEFA Cup, and has hit 36 goals in all competitions. The Italian has already won the German Cup, is on the verging of capturing the league, and is also in the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup. In the past it has often been big performances at the major international tournaments that has counted most in deciding who wins the European and World Footballer of the Year awards."
