Sócrates Award

Sadio Mané (pictured in 2017) won the inaugural Sócrates Award.[8]

On 21 September 2022, France Football announced the creation of the 'Sócrates Award' which identifies "the best solidarity actions carried out by committed champions."[41] The award is named after the late Brazilian footballer Sócrates, in honour of the player using his platform as an international footballer to support democratic regimes and opposing the military dictatorship in Brazil at the time.[42][43] Sócrates co-founded the Corinthians' Democracy, an ideological football movement originating within the Brazilian club Corinthians which fought against the authoritarian regime by promoting democratic practices within the region,[42] including urging people to vote in Brazilian multiparty elections.[44] Liverpool player Sadio Mané won the inaugural award for charity work conducted in his home country, Senegal.[42] The forward financed and reinvested in new facilities within his hometown Bambali, including a school, petrol station and hospital.[45][46] Mané donated to the Senegalese National Committee fighting against the COVID-19 pandemic.[47] Additionally, he financed a 4G internet service for the town and commissioned a €70-a-month stipend to each family in his hometown.[48] Outside of his charity work, Mané had a successful personal season with Liverpool, winning the FA Cup and EFL Cup and reaching the UEFA Champions League final;[49] he also won the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations with Senegal midway through the European domestic season.[50]

Manchester City won Club of the Year, becoming the second English club to win the award, after Chelsea won the inaugural edition in 2021.[9]

English club Manchester City won Club of the Year ahead of Liverpool, Real Madrid and Lyon. With the most Ballon d'Or and Ballon d'Or Féminin player nominations, Manchester City succeeded Chelsea as the second club to win the award following the award's introduction in 2021.[9] The club had João Cancelo, Kevin De Bruyne, Phil Foden, Riyad Mahrez and Bernardo Silva nominated for the season's Ballon d'Or, following their Premier League triumph. Additionally, Lucy Bronze, from Manchester City Women, was nominated for the Ballon d'Or Féminin, totalling six players from the club.[6] Manchester City finished ahead of Liverpool despite having the same number of player nominations; because City's nominations were spread across the two categories, they were given the award.[51]
