Good evening and welcome to this live blog! Here we will keep you informed of all the developments around the presentation of the Golden Ball in Paris. Have fun!
The golden balls are present in the theater.
Ousmane Dembélé arrives in Style. He is the big contender for the golden ball. The Frenchman is injured in his hamstring and therefore lets the PSG game against Olympique Marseille.
Lamine Yamal brought his whole family to the gala.
The audience goes crazy, because Lamine Yamal and FC Barcelona are coming up the red carpet in Paris.
There is also the Dutch presenter Ruud Gullit. In the meantime, the entire football world walks into the theater over the red carpet.
The Dutch delegation has also been expanded with Arne Slot and Virgil van Dijk.
There we have the British presenter Kate Scott.
Sarina Wiegman is also present. She is a big contender for the title Coach of the Year in Women’s Football.
Everyone wants to catch a glimpse of the big stars. No nobody will be present from Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
We are heading for the top ten, but Pedri will not be in it. The midfielder is eleventh on the list.

The red carpet is open with a nice concert.
Will that change tonight?
Also no golden ball for Kvaratskhelia. He was important for PSG when winning the Champions League.
Harry Kane is also falling off.
There are still twelve players who have a chance to win the Golden Ball:
Vinicius Júnior missed the Golden Ball last year. This year the Brazilian of Real Madrid ends in sixteenth place. Robert Lewandowski is the number 17.
There is a chance that a (former) player of PSG wins the prize. Nine players were nominated who won the Champions League last season, including the currently injured Ousmane Dembélé, Vitinha and Gianluigi Donnarumma (nowadays Manchester City). The bitter is that PSG will only be present in Paris on Monday evening. On Sunday, the match with Olympique Marseille was postponed because of the bad weather. The match will be overtaken on Monday evening, simultaneously with the gala. That competition starts at 8 p.m.
The Golden Ball gets a new winner from the men anyway. Manchester City midfielder Rodri, who received the prize last year, was injured for a long time and is not on the shortlist of thirty nominees.
In Paris they have already started counting down to the top ten. These nominated players fall into the battle for the Golden Ball.
The number 21 to 30 (Ballon d’Or):
This time it seems to go between Lamine Yamal (Barcelona), Ousmane Dembélé (Paris Saint-Germain) and Mohamed Salah (Liverpool). The three players never won the Ballon d’Or.
Denzel Dumfries and Virgil van Dijk were also nominated for the Ballon d’Or, but did not make it to the top twenty. Dumfries finished 25th, Van Dijk had to settle for 28th place
Both men and women can win the prizes. Sarina Wiegman and Renée Slegers have been nominated as coach of the year in women’s football. Liverpool coach Arne Slot also has a chance to win the Johan Cruiijf Trophy for Best Trainer. The Dutchman has competition from PSG trainer Luis Enrique, Antonio Conte (Napoli), Hansi Flick (FC Barcelona) and Enzo Maresca (Chelsea).
Time for the 69th presentation of the Golden Ball! The top of the football world comes together in Paris on the annual Ballon d’Or-Gala. Who can call themselves the winners of the prestigious prizes tonight?
