Lewandowski says Chelsea star Jorginho better than Ronaldo and Messi in 2021
ROBERT LEWANDOWSKI has explained why Chelsea star Jorginho was better than Ballon d’Or dominating duo Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo last season.
Bayern Munich star Lewa scooped the 2021 Fifa Best Men’s Player Award on Monday – but it was his own votes for the gong which raised eyebrows.
International managers and captains picked their top three players for the award and Poland skipper Lewandowski went for Jorginho, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo – and in that order.
The 33-year-old Bayern star explained his decision to Goal.
He said: “I always look at offensive players, but what Jorginho won means a lot.
“You have to remain neutral.
“He also scored important goals despite being a number six.
“The year for him was insane with Chelsea and Italy.”

Midfielder Jorginho, 30, won the Champions League with Chelsea last year and the Euros with Italy.
Lewa won the gong with 48 points, Paris Saint-Germain’s Messi was second with 44, and Manchester United’s Ronaldo seventh with 23.
Jorginho was sixth with 24 points but picked up top marks from England manager Gareth Southgate, Liverpool and Egypt superstar Mo Salah, and his international captain Giorgio Chiellini.
