Clock ticks down
There is less than two hours to go until we find out who is the 2025 Ballon d’Or winner.
Kane misses out on top 10
England captain Harry Kane has been denied a spot in the top ten of the rankings for this year.
The striker has been in sensational form in front of goal since joining Bayern Munich from Tottenham Hotspur.
However, his performances were only good enough for him to be ranked 13th.
Stage is set
The red carpet stage is set for the biggest names in football to arrive in their swankiest attire.
Loyal fans have gathered, many with PSG Dembele shirts and flags, and plenty with Barcelona and Lamine Yamal shirts too.
A grand piano is laid out as the players arrive, which it looks as though will be playing beautifully crafted, sweet music, only for Colombian rapper Blessd to take to the bed carpet and rap his heart out.
It remains unclear who will take home the most prestigious individual award in the sport, and fans are loving the suspense…
It’s been a lovely day in Paris weather-wise, but by the look of the sky, it may well literally rain on these players’ parade…
