Lionel Messi’s votes for the Kopa Trophy have been revealed with the GOAT unsurprisingly giving his top vote to former Barcelona team-mate Pedri.
The 19-year-old scooped the prestigious prize ahead of Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham and Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala.
Messi was able to vote as captain of Argentina and gave three points for Pedri, two for Paris Saint-Germain full-back Nuno Mendes and one for Bellingham, according to Diario Sport.
The GOAT was spotted looking delighted when Pedri was announced as the winner at the Ballon d’Or ceremony and received some words of thanks from the youngster in his speech.
