Onze d'Or, Marca's 100... Who won the other player-of-the-year awards before the Ballon d'Or?

Mbappé won the Onze d'Or with 48.2% of votes; Kane topped Marca's 100 best players; Rodri named World Cup MVP.

Ahead of Monday's Ballon d'Or ceremony in London, several individual awards have already been handed out for the 2025–26 season.

Kylian Mbappé won the Onze d'Or, a 50-year-old award honouring Europe's best player. The Real Madrid forward secured 48.2% of votes from two million online voters on the French media outlet's website, well ahead of Paris Saint-Germain midfielder João Neves (11.9%), Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (10.8%), and Lamine Yamal (9.7%).

In Spain, Harry Kane topped Marca's annual ranking of the world's 100 best players with 3,962 points, ahead of Yamal (3,937) and Mbappé (3,440). Kane's selection by a 226-member jury of journalists, international media, and former players and coaches marks his first top spot since the ranking began in 2021–22.

Rodri, a Ballon d'Or candidate, was named best player of the World Cup after guiding Spain to their second title this summer. Kvaratskhelia, sidelined by a serious knee injury, won the UEFA Champions League Player of the Season award following PSG's second consecutive title win.
