Ballon d'Or 2026 odds
(Odds when display when the market is available)
The race for the 2026 award looks wide open with this summer's World Cup set to play a deciding hand in who ultimately scoops the prize.
Harry Kane is the current favourite after enjoying a sensational campaign with Bayern Munich.
The England striker ended 2025/26 with an incredible 61 goals in 51 games, culminating in a second-half hat-trick as Bayern Munich beat Stuttgart to complete a Bundesliga and German Cup double.
His international summer also got off to the perfect start as he netted a brace against Croatia.
Kane's Bayern Munich teammate Michael Olise (6/1) has also emerged as a possible contender for the award after some sensational form this campaign that included several standout performances throughout Bayern's run to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, where they were eventually knocked out by Paris Saint-Germain.
Le Parisiens defeated Arsenal in the final, giving reigning Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele (6/1), as well as his teammate Kvicha Kvaratskhelia (10/1) great chances to scoop the award.
Kylian Mbappe (8/1) is also among the contenders as he looks to claim a maiden Ballon d'Or, while Declan Rice's (10/1) superb season with Premier League champions Arsenal has seen him move into the mix with the leading contenders.
Lamine Yamal (7/1) has continued to impress in 2026 and if he can shine while playing for Spain after winning La Liga with Barcelona, he would put himself in a strong position to win for this year's award.
