Christiane Endler, the Only Latin American To Opt for the 2021 Ballon d’Or

After a rather resounding year due to the COVID-19 health crisis, the award that will be given to the best footballer returns. The creation of the Ballon d'Or award has existed since 1956 for men. However, for women, it is a tremendously historic step in women's sport. The first Ballon d'Or of the 2018 edition was won by the Norwegian Ada Hegerberg and for the 2019 edition by the American Megan Rapinoe.

The magazine "France Football" revealed in its 2021 edition the women nominated for the Ballon d'Or and will select the best footballer. The famous trophy for the best women's soccer player will be disputed between Alexia Putellas, Sandra Paños, Irene Paredes, and Jenni Hermoso who are among the favorites. However, 16 others are giving their best effort to deserve the award. Among them are Lieke Martens, Magdalena Eriksson, Marie-Antoinette Katoto, San Kerr, Stina Blackstenius, Wendie Renard, Samantha Merwis, Pernille Harder, Vivianne Miedema, Jessie Fleming, Ashley Lawrence, Christine Sinclair, Ellen White, Christiane Endler, Fran Kirby, and Kadidiatou Diani.
