The Liverpool left-back was not included in the 30-man nomination list.
Some Liverpool supporters have been left annoyed by Andy Robertson’s omission from the Ballon d’Or nomination list, published on Monday night.
The prestigious award is run by publication France Football, who revealed their 30-man shortlist for the award this week.
Although multiple Liverpool players have been included, such as Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, there was no room for the reliable left-back, despite his stellar season last year.
It comes after Robertson was also excluded from FIFA’s team of the year at their recent awards bash.
The Scotland international made 48 appearances for the Reds in a season which saw them lift the UEFA Champions League trophy.
Robertson played in all but one of the matches in Europe, missing out against Porto due to supsension.
With 13 assists in all competitions, he proved to be not just a reliable defensive presence but an exciting attacking talent too.
Liverpool also had the best defensive record in the English Premier League, of which the 25-year-old was a massive part.
There aren’t many, if any, better left-backs out there right now so for him to miss out on a 30-man list is definitely surprising.
It’s led to some suggestions that the player is being underrated by those outside of the Liverpool bubble.
These fans were certainly left frustrated by his lack of nomination, taking to Twitter to share their thoughts over the last 24 hours…
