LONDON: Football’s most prestigious individual prize, the Ballon d’Or, will be co-organised by UEFA from next year, giving the European body a global event that traditionally out-ranks FIFA’s own world awards.
The deal comes seven years after a previous partnership between the French organisers of the award and world governing body FIFA ended.
From 2024, the Ballon d’Or awards and ceremony will be co-organised by UEFA and Groupe Amaury, which publishes France Football and L’Equipe.
