The nominees for 2022 FIFA Best Men’s Player Award have been unveiled and while World Cup finalists Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe featured on the shortlist, there was no room for Cristiano Ronaldo.

 

 

Argentina featured heavily in the shortlist for FIFA’s Best awards following their World Cup triumph, with forwards Lionel Messi and Julian Alvarez, goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez and coach Lionel Scaloni receiving nominations in their categories.

Barcelona and Arsenal dominated the women’s award with three players each including Alexia Putellas, Keira Walsh and Aitana Bonmati for the Spanish champions while the English side are represented by Leah Williamson, Vivianne Miedema and Beth Mead.

Chelsea duo Sam Kerr and Jessie Fleming and Olympique Lyonnais’ Ada Hegerberg and Wendie Renard also make the cut.
