Has the 2007 European Footballer of the Year been selected? And the World Footballer of the Year?

On the evening of October 10, Beijing time, FIFA announced the 2007 World Footballer of the Year candidate list in Bern, Switzerland, and the answer to who can win the 2007 World Footballer of the Year will be announced in Zurich on December 17.

Difference: The European Ballon d'Or, or European Footballer of the Year, is chosen by the French Football magazine. Each year, the magazine pre-publishes a list of candidates, from which senior journalists from UEFA's 52-member sport** select the winner of that year's "Ballon d'Or".

The award is rigorous and credible, and in the eyes of football professionals, it is more valuable than the "World Footballer of the Year" award, which is voted for by the coaches of the national teams. According to the rules set by France Football, each judge can list 5 names, and the players who are included are awarded 5 1 points in order of ranking. The points obtained by each player are accumulated, and the one with the highest score will receive the "Ballon d'Or" of that year.

Born in 1956, until 1994 it was limited to European players, and since 1995 it has been expanded to include players who play in Europe.

And the results did not say the specific day, usually mid or late December!

And FIFA selects the "World Footballer of the Year", which is generally not called the Golden Ball!

The World Footballer of the Year was created by FIFA in 1991 and German star Matthaus was elected the inaugural World Footballer of the Year. In recent years, the impact of this selection has surpassed the long-established World Football of the Year's selection by the British "World Footballer", and the winner has become the world's most recognized "World Footballer of the Year".

The "World Footballer of the Year" is voted for by the managers of each national team, and each of them can choose three people, but they cannot choose the members of the national team they coach (for example, Zico can vote for Rivaldo, but not Hidetoshi Tian). The first-choice player gets 5 points, the second-choice player gets 3 points, and the third-choice player gets 1 point.

At the beginning of December, France Football will welcome the 52nd "European Footballer of the Year" (i.e. European Ballon d'Or) in history

In 10 days, the World Footballer of the Year will be born.

In 2000, France won both the World Cup and the European Championship, becoming the first team in history to win the World Cup and then the European Championship, and the core of the team, Zinedine Zidane, won the World Footballer of the Year and the European Footballer of the Year in 2002.

The 2001 European Footballer of the Year was Michael Owen. On December 29, 2001, Owen ushered in his personal Premier League 100-goal moment in the match between Liverpool and West Bromwich Albion, and entered Liverpool's 100-goal hall. In 2003, Owen won the League Cup with Liverpool and broke Ian Rush's scoring record in European competitions with 22 goals.

By 2004, Owen had scored his 158th goal for Liverpool and became the joint-top Liverpool player for most appearances for the national team. Prior to leaving Liverpool in August 2004, Owen scored 158 goals in 267 appearances for the Reds. In August 2004, after Owen's contract negotiations with Liverpool FC broke down, he transferred to Real Madrid for 12 million euros, bidding farewell to Liverpool after eight years of service.

On August 14, 2004, Real Madrid officially announced that Owen, a goalscorer from Liverpool, England, had officially joined the team, and Owen signed a four-year contract with Real Madrid. Owen joined Real Madrid for €12 million, wearing the number 11 shirt of former Real Madrid legendary striker Alfredo Di Stefano.
