A handful of the world’s best will convene in Paris on Monday to find out who will win the Ballon d’Or, awarded to the top player of the year. The Ballon d’Or is presented by the French Football magazine to the best player in the men’s and women’s game, while a handful of other awards will also be presented at the ceremony. The Kopa Trophy will go to the best player under the age of 21, the Yashin Trophy will be awarded to the top goalkeeper of the year, and the Gerd Muller Trophy celebrates strikers. A club of the year will also be handed out, as will the Socrates Award for humanitarian work.
