Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, and Erling Haaland are among the nominees for The Best FIFA Men’s Player Award, while Spain’s Aitana Bonmati, the Golden Ball winner at the World Cup, is in the running for the Best Women’s Player category. In the men’s category, half of the 12 nominees were part of Manchester City’s treble-winning squad for the 2022-23 season, and City’s manager, Pep Guardiola, is nominated for Best Men’s Coach.
Spain’s World Cup victory is reflected in the 16 nominees for the women’s award, with four of their players making the list. England, the World Cup runners-up, have four players nominated, and their coach, Sarina Wiegman, is a contender for the women’s coaching award. Australia also has three players among the nominees.
The current holders of the top player awards are World Cup winners Messi from Argentina and Spain’s Alexia Putellas. A panel of soccer experts, including retired players Mia Hamm and Didier Drogba, shortlisted the nominees.
