Paris, France – The Ballon d’Or 2025 power rankings have taken a dramatic turn, with Mohamed Salah sliding out of the top five after a disastrous week. The Egyptian forward’s slump has paved the way for Raphinha, Kylian Mbappe, and Erling Haaland to boost their Golden Ball hopes.
The 2024-25 season has been marked by intense competition, with several players staking their claim for the coveted award. However, Rodri’s season-ending injury has opened up the door for a new crop of contenders to emerge. The Manchester City midfielder’s absence has created a power vacuum, and several players are vying to fill the void.

The Brazilian winger’s pace, skill, and goalscoring ability have made him a fan favorite, and he is increasingly becoming a serious contender for the Ballon d’Or.
Kylian Mbappe is another player who has seen his stock rise in recent weeks. The Paris Saint-Germain forward has been in scintillating form, scoring crucial goals and providing assists for his teammates. Mbappe’s pace, power, and precision make him a formidable opponent, and he is firmly in the running for the Golden Ball.
Erling Haaland has also been making waves in the football world, with his incredible goalscoring record for Manchester City making him a strong contender for the Ballon d’Or. The Norwegian striker’s pace, strength, and finishing ability have made him a nightmare for opposing defenders, and he is increasingly becoming a favorite to win the award.
Other players who have seen their Ballon d’Or hopes boosted in recent weeks include Vinicius Junior, Harry Kane, and Lamine Yamal. The Brazilian winger has been in impressive form for Real Madrid, while the English striker has been leading the line with aplomb for Tottenham Hotspur. Yamal, meanwhile, has been one of the breakout stars of the season, with his pace and skill making him a handful for opposing defenders.
The Ballon d’Or 2025 power rankings are likely to continue to fluctuate in the coming weeks and months, with several players still in the running for the award. However, one thing is certain: the competition for the Golden Ball is going to be fiercer than ever.
As the season enters its final stretch, the pressure is going to intensify on the contenders. Who will emerge victorious and claim the Ballon d’Or 2025? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: it’s going to be an exciting ride.
The Ballon d’Or 2025 ceremony is scheduled to take place in Paris in December, and it promises to be an unforgettable evening. The football world will be watching with bated breath as the winner is announced, and the recipient of the Golden Ball is revealed.
