The 2024 Ballon d'Or was the 68th annual ceremony of the Ballon d'Or. It was presented by France Football that recognized the best footballers in the world in the 2023–24 season. It was the third ceremony during which awards were presented based on the results of the season instead of the calendar year, specifically the period from 1 August 2023 to 31 July 2024. The nominees were announced on 4 September 2024 and the ceremony took take place on 28 October 2024.[2][3] Two new accolades were awarded: Men's Coach of the Year and Women's Coach of the Year, recognizing the contribution of coaches to success on the pitch.[2] UEFA co-organized the Ballon d'Or gala for the first time, while France Football retained the voting system and the Ballon d'Or name.[2][4]

For the first time, both the men's and women's Ballons d'Or were awarded to players from the same country, with Rodri and Aitana Bonmatí coming from Spain,[5] in addition to the Kopa Trophy being also awarded to Lamine Yamal, also from Spain.[6]

Controversy

[edit]

Despite winning the Men’s Club of the Year award and their manager, Carlo Ancelotti, receiving the Men's Johan Cruyff Trophy, Real Madrid boycotted the Ballon d’Or ceremony in protest against Vinícius Júnior not being the anticipated winner of the award, which they believed he deserved. Renowned media outlets such as Marca, ESPN FC, and SPORTbible had previously reported through their sources that he was expected to win, and Nike had even planned to launch the "Ballon d'Or Boots" for him in celebration of the achievement.[17]

Fabrizio Romano, a popular football journalist, confirmed on his Twitter at 1:56 AM on October 29, 2024, that "no one from Real Madrid [would] attend the Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris. No Ancelotti, no Bellingham, no Florentino Pérez… to support Vinícius Jr."[18][19]
