Karim Benzema has posted ANOTHER subtle dig on social media after missing out on the FIFA Best award on Monday.
Lionel Messi was crowned the world's best male footballer at the FIFA Best awards, just a few months since he guided Argentina to World Cup glory in Qatar.
On collecting the award, Messi, who pipped Kylian Mbappe and Benzema to the prestigious individual gong, said: "It's amazing. It's an honour for me to be here tonight and win this award.
"Without my team-mates I wouldn't be here. It was an amazing year and I achieved the dream that I've been hoping for so long and finally, I managed to achieve it."
