🚨 France Football is taking extra precautions to ensure the winner of the 2026 Ballon d'Or remains a COMPLETE SECRET until the envelope is opened on stage. πŸ† The organisers are expected to follow the same strict procedure used in 2025, when even Ousmane DembΓ©lΓ© was unaware he had won until his name was announced. The winner will only discover they've won at the ceremony in London on October 26. πŸ‘€βœ¨ (Source: L'Γ‰quipe)
