FULL LIST: Dembele, Lamine Yamal Win Big At 2025 Globe Soccer Awards

The Globe Soccer Awards has hosted its 16th annual gala in Dubai on Sunday, with Lamine Yamal and Ousmane Dembélé securing major honours at the 2025 edition, leading the full list of winners at the prestigious ceremony.

Founded in 2010, the Globe Soccer Awards are organised to commend players with outstanding performance in the year review.

The gala has taken place each December or January in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, to recognise the most prominent figures in the world of football.

The awards were founded by famed football agent Jorge Mendes, along with Italian businessmen Riccardo Silva and Tommaso Bendoni, with Mendes winning the Best Agent category almost every year.

A statement on the Globe Soccer website stated that “At the heart of Globe Soccer’s mission is a commitment to honouring all facets of the beautiful game.

“Their awards celebrate not just players, but the full spectrum of football stakeholders, from chairmen and agents to directors and referees.”
