The 2023 Ballon d'Or goes to Lionel Messi who wins the trophy for the eighth time in his career.

Among the women, the prestigious award went to the Spanish Aitana Bonmati of Barcelona.

Behind the Argentine were Manchester City striker Erling Haaland and Frenchman Kylian Mbappe. The Kopa Trophy for the best under-21 player goes to Bellingham, the Yashin award (best goalkeeper) to "Dibu" Martinez, while the Muller award, intended for the best striker, was won by Haaland.
