I understand the point you want to make, but it is a bit simplistic. Even this year someone will win outside of La Liga, that being Haaland or Messi probably (PL & Ligue 1).Last Bundesliga-based player to win the Ballon D'or?
Unless I'm reading it wrong.
Mattias Sammer in 1996, and before that, Rumminigge in 80 and 81...
Now, Real... Barca... there he wins it.
Apart from a World Cup year, the UCL carries the most weight in this vote now. Lewandowski would have won in 2020 if the award hadn't been canceled, for example.
Messi and CR7 are no longer in the running, Mbappe/Haaland are good, but not as good as the two above, who won even with other teams winning the UCL. Kane would have a great chance if he keeps scoring goals and wins the UCL.
