The headline award, which is the Men’s Player of the Year, has got football fanatics talking, with the center theme being the inclusion of players who many feel were undeserving.

Meanwhile, in the Goalkeeper of the Year category, Manchester City’s Ederson will be hoping to defend his crown but faces competition from David Raya (Arsenal), Emiliano Martinez (Aston Villa), Unai Simon (Athletic Bilbao), Mike Maignan (AC Milan), Andriy Lunin (Real Madrid), and Donnarumma (Paris Saint Germain).
Five managers have also been shortlisted for the Men’s Coach of the Year gong, including Xabi Alonso (Bayer Leverkusen), Ancelotti (Real Madrid), Pep Guardiola (Manchester City), Luis Dela Fuente (Spain), and Scaloni (Argentina).
A host of stars will also be vying for The Best FIFA Men’s 11 Attacker of the Year, with established names such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi leading the charge.
Ghana’s Mohammed Kudus, Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho, and Federico Di Marco (Inter Milan) are also top picks to nick the prestigious Puskas award.
