Lionel Messi is among 14 nominees for the FIFA Best award following his World Cup victory.
The PSG star is among two Argentines to be nominated with Manchester City forward Julian Alvarez also in the running. Messi led his country to a first World Cup success since 1986 in Qatar, picking up the Golden Boot en route - becoming the first player to claim the individual accolade twice.
Messi scored in every knockout game, including a brace in the final, as Argentina won on penalties. He shared the limelight with Kylian Mbappe, who almost hauled France to another World Cup victory. His final hat-trick saw him pick up the Golden Boot.
