FC Bayern has another Ballon d’Or winner! Harry Kane was named the world’s best soccer player on Monday evening. The 33-year-old Englishman prevailed in the prestigious vote over Lamine Yamal of FC Barcelona and Kylian Mbappé of Real Madrid.
For the striker, this is the greatest individual honor of his career to date. After weeks of speculation and discussion, it’s now official: The Golden Ball is heading to Munich in 2026.
Kane succeeds Ousmane Dembélé, who won the award last year. For the German record champions, this is a historic achievement. It is the first time since 1981 that a player wearing an FC Bayern jersey has won the Ballon d’Or.
