Uncategorised Ballon d’Or will not be awarded in 2020 !

Ballon d'Or

There will be no Ballon d’Or ceremony this year. So no winner in 2020. France Football, the organizer of the event confirms on Monday.

“ For the first time in its history, which began in 1956, the France Football Ballon d’Or will not be awarded in 2020, for lack of sufficient fair conditions ,” we read in a tweet.

This is a new consequence of the coronavirus health pandemic.

The Argentinian Lionel Messi and the American Megan Rapinoe therefore remain the last winners. Just like the Dutchman Matthis de Ligt for the Kopa Trophy and Alisson for the Yachine for best goalkeeper.

In addition, the CAF (African Football Confederation) has also decided not to hold these Awards this year . For now, the FIFA Best ceremony has been postponed since May. It was to be held on September 21 in Milan.
