Dembele beat Barcelona youngster Lamine Yamal to the Ballon d’Or, becoming the first Frenchman to do so since Karim Benzema to do so and sixth overall after Raymond Kopa, Michel Platini, Jean-Pierre Papin and Zinedine Zidane.

Dembele, a first-time winner of the prestigious award, played a massive role in Paris Saint-Germain finally getting their hands on the Champions League last season as well as dominating on home soil.

Bonmati won the Ballon d’Or Feminin for the third year in a row, beating Spain team-mate Mariona Caldentey to the award as Arsenal’s Alessia Russo completed the top three with fellow Lionesses Chloe Kelly, Leah Williamson, Lucy Bronze and Hannah Hampton in the top 10,

Elsewhere, it was a great night for Arsenal as summer signing Viktor Gyokeres shared the Gerd Muller Trophy with Barcelona’s Ewa Pajor after scoring 54 goals for Sporting CP last season. Meanwhile, Renee Slegers’ side were named women's club of the Year after their Champions League success last season.

PSG took home the men’s award, though the majority of the squad couldn’t be in attendance due to their Ligue 1 fixture away to rivals Marseille being rearranged for the evening of the ceremony.

For the first-time ever, the women’s Yashin Trophy was presented with Chelsea and England goalkeeper Hannah Hampton being recognised for her performances for club and country. Gianluigi Donnarumma ended Emiliano Martinez’s dominance after his heroics for PSG, particularly in the Champions League last season.

At the start of the night, Yamal successfully defended his Kopa Trophy crown for the best under-21 player, while fellow Barcelona star Vicky Lopez took home the award for the women.

Luis Enrique and Sarina Wiegman were recognised as the coaches of the year, and Xana foundation received the Socrates Trophy for most involved player in societal and charitable projects.
