Purported voting results for the 2024 Ballon d’Or have surfaced online hours before the official announcement of the winner of the 68th annual ceremony of the Ballon d’Or, presented by France Football.

Naija News reports that the Ballon d’Or is an individual award which recognizes the best footballers in the world.

It is worth noting that the award will again be given based on the results of the season instead of the calendar year for the third time in the history of the prize.

However, according to Daily Mail, a voting result has been leaked just hours before the official event scheduled for Monday night.

The result shows a list of the top contenders for the award, with Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior emerging as the winner of the Ballon d’Or 2024 with 630 points.

Rodri, the midfielder for Manchester City, occupies the second position with a total of 576 points.

In third place is Jude Bellingham, followed by his fellow England teammates Harry Kane in fifth and Phil Foden in eighth.

Kylian Mbappe ranks fourth, while Lamine Yamal is in seventh place. Dani Olmo, Florian Wirtz, Dani Carvajal, and Antonio Rudiger are positioned ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth, respectively.

Erling Haaland from Manchester City is in sixth place, having accumulated 195 points.
