FIFA gives the Best Awards: tension in front of gala dinner in Doha!

In the exciting world of football, the decisive moments are pending in Doha today: FIFA awards the prestigious "The Best" awards for the world footballer and world footballer 2024. This year, FIFA deviates from the traditional process and presents the winners as part of a gala dinner that begins at 6 p.m. Instead of a large gala, the event is transferred as a digital event on the official FIFA website, such as Sport1 reports .

The main favorites for the title of world footballer are the Spanish European champion Rodri by Manchester City and the Brazilian striker Vinícius Júnior from Real Madrid. Both players have shown outstanding achievements and the tension is great who will win the coveted title. According to Krone , two Germans, Toni Kroos and Florian Wirtz, are also nominated for the award. The Spanish world champion Aitana Bonmati is acted as a favorite for women, but no German player has made it into the final selection.

The change in the procedure is remarkable: the award ceremony usually takes place in January, but FIFA surprisingly set the award at short notice. This was done due to the full schedules, which are becoming increasingly complex due to international cup competitions and national leagues. According to the Spanish newspaper Marca, there was no suitable alternative date until March, which led to the late decision.
