2026 Ballon d’Or: Final Power Rankings Revealed – Top Five

The final power rankings for the 2026 Ballon d’Or have been released, with just two weeks remaining before the award ceremony in London, United Kingdom.

According to Score 90, Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé leads the rankings as one of the leading contenders for football’s most prestigious individual award.

The French superstar finished as the top scorer in LaLiga, the UEFA Champions League and the 2026 World Cup. However, despite his individual achievements, he failed to win any trophies during the period under review.

Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal occupies second place following a successful season in which he won the LaLiga title and the World Cup trophy.

Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane sits in third position, continuing to feature among the leading names in the race for the prestigious individual honour.

Barcelona’s Rodri occupies fourth place in the rankings, while Manchester City striker Erling Haaland completes the top five.
