How To Watch The Ballon d'Or 2024: Start Time, How To Watch, Nominees & More
The 2024 Ballon d'Or will be the 68th annual ceremony presented by France Football to the best footballer in the world from the 2023-24 season. This will be the third time it's been awarded based on a player's season results rather than a calendar year.
Real Madrid and Brazilian forward Vinicius Jr. is the favorite to lift the award, but has other would-be contenders alongside several Los Blancos teammates. Will it be the fifth Real Madrid player in the last ten years to lift the prestigious award?
