The Best Awards canceled

The information is advanced by the newspaper Marca, which explains that the decision of FIFA, the body that delivers this distinction, is related to the health crisis generated by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Aware of the seriousness of the situation, FIFA officials, led by Infantino, made the decision several weeks ago, considering that all non-essential competitions and prizes must be postponed.

So, for now, the only competition organized by FIFA that has not yet suffered from the impact of the new coronavirus is the Club World Cup, which is scheduled for December.

As for the Ballon d’Or, the ‘France Football’ magazine has not yet decided whether it will continue with a prize granted since 1956, an award that has never ceased to be awarded in any situation although from 2010 to 2015 it was merged with FIFA award.
