The former Barcelona and Juventus striker says it would be “madness” if Barcelona star Lionel Messi is denied the Ballon d’Or trophy

The trophy will be presented on Monday, January 11, 2016.

Messi, Ronaldo and Neymar are the three finalists for the Ballon D’or award

“We used to say that a player who got 23 to 25 goals in a season was an incredible striker, but Messi does that in three months.

“We had incredible players in that [Barca] team [that Henry played in] and whenever you did not know what to do, you always looked for Messi.

“I think it would be madness if he does not win the Ballon d’Or. He deserves it because the team won another treble. But what I do not understand is why Suarez isn’t there.”

Predicting the possible winners of this season’s Champions League, Henry said: “In a single game, Bayern [Munich] can win it and you have to be careful with PSG too.

“You never know what might happen, but I think Barca can win it again.”
