France Football magazine, which again took over the exclusive organization of the Golden Ball competition, announced the 30 candidates for the most historic individual distinction. Although over time the award fades, especially since FIFA began awarding its own, The Best, with more accurate criteria, remains a great success participating in the competition even as a candidate. The 30 footballers were selected by the editors of the French magazine and now the final crisis passes to about 180 journalists, one from each country, to determine the winner.
Luka Modric is the favorite after winning The Best, but also the title of top player in the World Cup and Champions League.

Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale are two glaring examples of how pervasive the competition is in its new era, having crowned European champions Real with no real contribution.
Both have nothing to show for the Primera Division or the World Cup, so they are on this list thanks to the work of Montrich, Ronaldo, Casimiro, Isco, Marcos Asensio, Kaylor Navas, Rafael Varane, Marcelo, Sergio Sergio. For this reason, with a very simple search, we found 37 players who could be in the position of at least these two, or instead of some other names in the list. With a more careful search, 37 could become… a three-digit number. What is certain is that in the list of 30 of the Golden Ball 2018, the BBC has never had it before, only C.
