Historic omission in Ballon d'Or noms

The 2026 Ballon d'Or nominations have notably lacked goalkeepers, as no goalkeeper made it onto the final shortlist for the competition. This is a rare occurrence, happening for the first time since 1995, with goalkeepers previously missing from the final rankings in 1967 and 1968. The last goalkeeper to win the award was Soviet goalkeeper Lev Yashin, who secured the prize in 1963, before he disappeared from the final lists. This absence reignites the debate over the best goalkeeper of the season, especially since having only one goalkeeper among the finalists in the two previous editions of the awards had largely predetermined the winner of Yashin's trophy.
