A new winner of the men’s award is to be guaranteed to be crowned this year.
Last year’s winner Rodri was ruled out for the whole of last season after a crucial ACL injury he picked up against Arsenal at the start of last season.
Ousmane Dembele is the front runner for the award after PSG won the Champions League, while the likes of such Raphinha, Lamine Yamal and Mohamed Salah are all in contention.
The Kopa Trophy will crown the best young gun under 21, while the Yashin Trophy will salute the top shot-stoppers in both the men’s and women’s game.
And that’s not all – the best clubs and gaffers will also be honoured in a glittering night of goals and glory.
Strap in – it’s set to be a football fiesta you won’t want to miss.
