The Senegalese star was in brilliant form last season as he aided the Reds to lift their UEFA Champions League title.
If this indeed happens, this will be the second year in a row that Ronaldo will be absent from the prestigious award ceremony.

Ronaldo had changed bases to Italian heavyweights Juventus last season and even went on to win the Serie A season with them. He also ensured that Juventus lift the Italian Super Cup.
