Jude Bellingham: After making the spectacular switch from Borussia Dortmund to Real Madrid in the summer, the English midfielder is the favorite to take home the prize. He has been an important player for both club and country and has five goals in his first four La Liga appearances. A starter for England in the World Cup in Qatar, he was also chosen as the Bundesliga player of the year the previous year.
The French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, who recently joined Real Madrid, had a breakthrough season the previous year and has already established himself as one of the top midfielders in the world. He assisted Real Madrid in winning three titles last year, including the UEFA Super Cup, the Copa del Rey, and the Club World Cup. He frequently plays left back for the French national team, and he was excellent in the World Cup Final.
The remaining candidates are listed below:
Gavi (Spain; Barcelona)
Germany’s Bayern Munich resident Jamal Musiala
Spain’s Barcelona native Pedri
Xavi Simons of the Netherlands and RB Leipzig
Alejandro Balde (Spain; Barcelona)
Antonio Silva (Portugal’s Benfica)
Rasmus Hjlund, a Danish player for Manchester United
Elye Wahi (France/Lens)
