Iker Casillas is among the Balon d'Or favorites
Arancha Díaz / Translation by Matthew Goltz
It's still several months before the Balon d'Or winner is announced, but the latest issue of L'Équipe has reveiled the names of the five likely finalists, among whom is Iker Casillas.
Winning the league and the Euro and conceding the fewest goals in each are reason enough for Iker Casillas to find his name atop the list of Balon d'Or candidates. According to the latest edition of France's L'Équipe, which belongs to the same publishing house as France Football, the Madridista goalkeeper is among the top five candidates for the award.
Joining Casillas are Spanish international and Liverpool striker Fernando Torres, Portuguese international and ManU winger Cristiano Ronaldo, UEFA Cup champion and Euro 08 standout Arshavin, and Barcelona forward Leo Messi.
