Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma won the FIFA Best male goalkeeper award for 2025 on Tuesday having helped previous club Paris Saint-Germain to a treble in May.
The stopper was instrumental in PSG winning Ligue 1, the Coupe de France and their first Champions League title in May. He soon fell out with bosses of the French club, however, and moved on to Manchester City.
"It's a real honour to receive this award. I'm very, very happy," he said in a video message.
He is the first Italian to take the prize since Gianluigi Buffon in 2017.
His former PSG team-mate Ousmane Dembélé is a favourite to win the Best men's player later having won the rival Ballon D'Or award in September.
England goalkeeper Hannah Hampton was earlier named Best female keeper after the Lionesses retained their European Championship title in July. Her Chelsea side also won a domestic treble.
FIFA said 16 million votes had been cast overall for the annual awards, with fans, national team captains and coaches, media representatives and a panel of ex-players being involved in choosing the various winners.
"Thank you very much to everyone who voted, it's greatly appreciated and it really means a lot," Hampton, 25, said.
Mexican player Lizbeth Ovalle won the Marta award for the best women's goal after her spectacular "reverse scorpion kick" for Tigres against Chivas Guadalajara. She has since moved to Orlando Pride.
Regensburg doctor, Zakho SC also feted
The Puskás award for best men's goal went to Santiago Montiel for his overhead kick from outside the box for Club Atlético Independiente in Argentina.
Jahn Regensburg team doctor Andreas Harlass-Neuking won the FIFA Fair Play Award for saving the life of a fan at a German second-division game in April.
During Regensburg's match at Magdeburg, he was made aware that a home fan had collapsed.
He jumped over a barrier and resuscitated the supporter, who was then transferred to a local hospital and survived.
"Your sportsmanship, altruism and selflessness are reflective of the very best aspects of our beautiful game. All of us at FIFA and the global football community thank you wholeheartedly for making a difference that day," FIFA president Gianni Infantino said on social media.
FIFA's Best awards ceremony for players and coaches takes place later on Tuesday in Doha, but football's world governing body was releasing some winners throughout the day.
This is the 10th edition of the FIFA Best awards in their current incarnation.
The fan award went to supporters of Iraqi side Zakho SC, who have been rewarded "for their efforts in helping children who suffer with illnesses."
In May, fans threw thousands of stuffed toys onto the pitch from the stands, which were then gathered and donated to sick youngsters.
