On Monday, February 27, 2023, Karim Benzema, Lionel Messi, and Kylian Mbappé will compete for The Best Men’s Player at the Best FIFA Football Awards 2022 in Paris.
Only a few months have passed since Karim Benzema and Alexia Putellas won the Ballon d’Or for their performances in 2021–22, but FIFA is already preparing to present its own awards. Will Karim Benzema, Kylian Mbappé, or Lionel Messi be named The Best FIFA Men’s Player? Will Alex Morgan, Alexia Putellas, or Beth Mead win the women’s prize?
The FIFA Football Best Awards will be held when?
On Monday, February 27, 2023, in Paris, France, the Best Fifa Football Awards 2022 will be presented. The ceremony is set to begin at 3 p.m. ET. Guests will be able to attend the event in person rather than virtually for the first time since January 2020 (due to the COVID-19 pandemic, just in case you forgot about that…).

The Best FIFA Football Awards 2022 nominees were chosen in what manner?
Two expert panels, one for men’s soccer and one for women’s soccer, selected the nominees for The Best players, goalkeepers, and coaches awards.
Who casts ballots for The Best FIFA Football Awards 2022?
Each of the Best Fifa Football Awards categories allowed voting by media representatives, national team coaches, national team captains, and the general public, which reduced the number of nominees in each category to three finalists. The Best FIFA Fan Award voting for the general public ended on February 3; however, you may still vote for the winner up until the end of Sunday, February 26, the day before the ceremony.
