The Ballon d'Or is an annual football award presented by France Football magazine since 1956. The award is given to the best male football player in the world based on the votes of a panel of international journalists. In 2010, the award merged with the FIFA World Player of the Year award and was known as the FIFA Ballon d'Or, but in 2016 the partnership ended, and the award returned to its original name, the Ballon d'Or.
