Ceremony taking place at Théâtre du Chatelet in ParisFive England players in top 10 for women’s Ballon d’OrGet in touch! Email michael.butler@theguardian.comAlready, there is quite a lot of digest. Harry Kane can probably count himself a little unlucky to be outside the top 10 given he scored 41 goals and provided 14 assists (55 GA) in just 51 games. It’s not easy to quantify just how big an impact João Neves had for PSG in midfield – scuttling interceptions don’t count for much in this ceremony – but I’m not sure PSG would have won the Champions League without him. Sandy Baltimore was sensational for Chelsea after signing last summer, she is another that is unfortunate not to make the top 10 after helping the Blues to a domestic treble.11.
