Things haven’t been better for Jude Bellingham right now. He got a dream move to Spanish giants Real Madrid, is one of England’s most important players, and is scoring for fun. He already won the Golden Boy Award and Kopa Trophy, and now has been declared the best U-20 player.

To add to his performances with Real Madrid, he was one of the best players in the Bundesliga when he was at Borussia Dortmund. In 2023 he had 5 goals and 4 assists. Dortmund finished 2nd, narrowly missing the Bundesliga title on the final day of the season.

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland was awarded IFFHS’s Best Men’s Player of the World award, ahead of stars like Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe. Aitana Bonmati was declared the Best Women’s Player of the World, beating teammate Paralluelo and Chelsea’s Sam Kerr.
