For this edition of the award that honors the best player in the world, according to France Football magazine, there were four important changes. The most important is that it ceased to be considered from January to December, which implied having to count two half-seasons. In this way, it began to value what has been achieved over a season, which runs from August 2021 to July 2022.
Lists of 30 for men, 20 for women and 10 for the Kopa (young player) and Yashin (goalkeeper) Trophies are currently being drawn up. "In order to present a selection of suitors that is as fair, undisputed and relevant as possible, we have acted to change the process," they shared.
