Ballon d'Or 2024: When, Where, and Who Will Shine?
It's that time again, folks - the time we all get a little obsessed with football (or soccer, if you're in the US). The Ballon d'Or ceremony is just around the corner, and everyone's buzzing about who'll snag the coveted golden ball. But before we dive into the predictions, let's get the basics down:
When and Where is the Ballon d'Or 2024?
The Ballon d'Or ceremony for 2024 is expected to take place in October. The exact date and time haven't been officially announced yet, but keep your eyes peeled on the official FIFA website.
As for the venue, it's a safe bet that it'll be held in Paris, France, just like in the past few years. It's become a real tradition, and it's hard to imagine the awards ceremony anywhere else.
Who's in the Running for the Ballon d'Or 2024?
Predicting the winner is tough, but there are always a few frontrunners. Last year, Karim Benzema took home the glory, but this year things are looking a bit different.
Here are some potential contenders, though it's super early in the year to tell for sure:
- Erling Haaland: The Norwegian goalscoring machine is a serious contender, lighting up the Premier League with Manchester City.
- Lionel Messi: The GOAT is still going strong, and even though he's in his twilight years, he could make a final push for the award.
- Kylian Mbappé: The young Frenchman is a superstar in the making, and a standout performer for both Paris Saint-Germain and France.
- Kevin De Bruyne: The Belgian maestro pulls the strings for Man City and is always a contender for the award.
It'll be an exciting race to the finish line, but we'll have to wait and see who comes out on top!
