Ballon d’Or 2024 Nominees

The most contentious list in world football is the Ballon d’Or list of top soccer players for the calendar year. The Ballon d’Or 2024 nominees list was released to much fanfare as well as condemnation due to some players that didn’t make the cut. The list of 15 candidates for the best player in men’s football is headlined by FC Barcelona forward Lionel Messi, his eternal rival Cristiano Ronaldo, and Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk. For women’s football, USA national team’s Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan lead the list of top 20 women for their showing in the FIFA Women’s World Cup tournament earlier this year.
