The Ballon d’Or was first awarded in 1956, making 2026 a landmark year for the prize as it celebrates it's 70th birthday with a special prize.
The organisers are asking fans to choose the greatest individual Ballon d’Or-winning year of all time, with some of the world's greatest ever footballers up for the award.
This is a separate award to the men's Ballon d'Or where the likes of Lamine Yamal, Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane are the favourites to win this year.
Fans can vote for their B.O.A.T now, but voting closes on October 27th at midnight. Results are expected on October 28th. The main ceremony will take place on October 26th at the London Palladium in London.
