How are Ballon d’Or nominees selected?
According to France Football, the list of candidates is a fusion of lists from three main sources.
The candidates compiled by journalists from France Football and L’Equipe are combined with those from former great Didier Drogba, who is considered a Ballon d’Or ambassador.
In addition, the media voters from the last edition who submitted a ballot that matched the final vote had their list of nominees added to the mix as part of the new process: Vietnamese journalist Truong Anh Ngoc and New Zealand’s Gordon Watson. Czech journalist Karolina Hlavackova had her list of finalists for the women’s Ballon d’Or added to the list from France Football/L’Equipe.
When is Ballon d’Or 2022 ceremony?
After the controversy that surrounded the 2021 trophy, France Football made it clear that its 66th edition will be new with a “tighter voting panel and rules that are more clear.”
That tighter media voting panel will be made up only of journalists from the top 100 nations in the men’s FIFA world rankings for the men’s awards, and media from the top 50 nations in the women’s FIFA world rankings who will vote for the women’s award.
The prestigious prizes will be handed out at a glitzy ceremony at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris on Oct. 17.
2022 Ballon d’Or Finalists (Men)
There are 30 finalists and Messi being absent from the list is grabbing all the headlines. It’s the first time since 2005 that he won’t be up for a vote. He finished among the top three on 13 occasions between 2006 and 2021.
The new guidelines for the award — individual performance as the primary criteria and career success no longer a factor — are believed to be the main reason that Messi does not find himself among the top 30 players in the world.
Messi won the Ballon d’Or last year for a record seventh time, and alongside fellow superstar Cristiano Ronaldo they have shared 12 of the last 13 Ballon d’Or trophies between them. Ronaldo did make cut in 2022 and now has 18 Ballon d’Or nominations compared to Messi’s 15
