European Footballer of the Year ("Ballon d'Or")
Voters are journalists - one from each member country of UEFA. Each voter chooses 5 players and points are awarded as follows: 5 points for a first place in a voters' list, 4 points for second, 3 points for third, 2 points for fourth, and 1 point for fifth.
In 2010 the election was not held but combined with the FIFA World Player of the Year. As that is (theoretically) not restricted to players active at European clubs, that is considered the end of the European Footballer of the Year.
The 20th century winners chose France Football's Player of the Century in 1999.
