Women’s football still a little more in history. For the first time, 30 female footballers have been nominated to win the next Ballon d’Or. As many names in women as in men for the first time, therefore, for this trophy created in 2018.

A list of 30 players largely and logically dominated by Spain, who won the World Cup a few weeks ago. Not to mention that FC Barcelona achieved the treble by winning the national championship, the Spanish Super Cup and the Champions League.

They are four players to have won the Champions League and the World Cup in this list: Patrcia Guijarro, Mapi Leon, Salma Paralluelo and favorite Aitina Bonmati. Alexia Putellas, double defending champion, absent from this list.

Only two tricolors among the list of 30. Kadidiatou Diani and Wendie Renard represent the Blues. Absent from the last World Cup due to injuries, Delphine Cascarino and Marie-Antoinette Katoto are not there, just like Eugénie Le Sommer, who was a quarter-finalist at the World Cup.
