Former Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay has reportedly earned a nomination for the 2025 Ballon d’Or.
The 28-year-old Scottish international is said to have impressed selectors with his outstanding performances during the 2024/2025 season at both club and international levels.
McTominay, who currently plays for Napoli, was a key figure in the Italian side’s campaign across domestic and European competitions. His powerful presence in midfield, combined with tactical discipline and a knack for crucial goals, made him a standout performer throughout the season.
On the international stage, McTominay played a pivotal role in Scotland’s journey at UEFA Euro 2024. His leadership and consistent impact in high-pressure moments were widely praised, further boosting his Ballon d\’Or credentials.
The official list of nominees for the 2025 Ballon d’Or will be announced on Thursday, August 7, 2025, according to organisers. The award, presented by France Football, recognises players based on individual performance, team success, and sportsmanship.
While the Ballon d’Or carries no official cash prize, winners typically receive substantial bonuses from clubs and sponsors as part of performance-based contracts.
The prestigious award ceremony is scheduled to take place in Paris on September 22, 2025, where the football world will gather to crown the best player of the season.
