Who Will Be the Best Player of Euro 2024? Top 10 Likely Winners
The biggest football event of the summer prompts speculation about who will be crowned the best player of Euro 2024 in Germany. There is little suspense regarding the frontrunner: Mbappe is leading the pack. However, besides Kylian, there are several other worthy contenders in the rankings. You can giris to Pin-Up and place a bet not only on the best player of Euro 2024 but also on matches or the winning team.
1. Kylian Mbappe
Odds: Around 8.0
Scored 44 goals and made 10 assists in 48 matches during the 2023/24 season. Named Ligue 1 Player of the Year for the fifth consecutive time and won the Silver Ball at the 2022 World Cup. Adding the title of the best player of Euro 2024 to his resume seems likely.
2. Jude Bellingham
Odds: 11.0
Scored 3 goals and made 13 assists in 42 matches during the 2023/24 season. Named La Liga Player of the Year and Champions League Best Young Player for the 2023/24 season. Bellingham had a spectacular debut season with Real Madrid, scoring crucial last-minute goals in two El Clásico matches, earning him top status in Spain and helping Real secure their 36th league title.
3. Harry Kane
Odds: 12.0
Scored 44 goals and made 12 assists in 45 matches during the 2023/24 season, earning the Golden Boot for the season. While he conquered Germany individually, he missed out on team titles. Nevertheless, Bayern Munich likely has no regrets about their record transfer, as Kane became the top scorer in European leagues by a significant margin.
4. Phil Foden
Odds: 14.0
Named Premier League Player of the Year for the 2023/24 season, scoring 27 goals and making 12 assists in 53 matches. Injuries slowed down Erling Haaland, but Guardiola had Foden to rely on. The Manchester City academy graduate scored crucial goals, leading the club to a record fourth consecutive championship and earning a spot in the Champions League Team of the Season.
5. Kevin De Bruyne
Odds: 15.0
De Bruyne had an outstanding season by his standards, with 24 points in 26 matches at the club level. It’s intriguing to imagine what his stats would have been if not for the long-term injuries that caused him to miss the first half of the campaign.
6. Toni Kroos
Kroos ended his club career memorably by winning the Champions League in his farewell match and is now heading to his final tournament in the national team jersey. This spring, Toni made a triumphant return to the national team after a three-year hiatus, providing two game-winning assists in matches against France and the Netherlands.
7. Antoine Griezmann
Griezmann has a history of attracting awards at major international tournaments. He was named the best player of Euro 2016, the top assist provider of the 2022 World Cup, and won the Bronze Ball at the 2018 World Cup. The upcoming European Championship is likely to be his last in the French national team jersey.
8. Bukayo Saka
The leader of Arsenal likely recalls the last Euros with a heavy heart—three years ago, the 19-year-old prodigy missed a decisive penalty in the final against Italy and faced widespread abuse. Now, Saka has become much more resolute and will have a good chance to redeem himself in the upcoming tournament.
9. Cristiano Ronaldo
Ronaldo continues to easily collect individual awards, winning the Saudi Arabian Golden Boot, although not team trophies—this season, his club Al-Nassr lost the championship, Super Cup, and Cup to Al-Hilal. The defeat in the final of the last competition, after a penalty shootout, even brought the Portuguese star to tears. Will we see a determined Ronaldo on the fields of Germany?
10. Florian Wirtz
Bayer Leverkusen shocked Germany with an unbeaten season in domestic tournaments. The main hero of their golden double was undoubtedly Wirtz, whose hat-trick in the championship match secured the club’s first-ever title. Media reports already suggest that Real Madrid has its eye on the midfielder as a replacement for fellow German, Toni Kroos. Florian has the chance to make a name for himself before the Champions League winners at the home Euro 2024.
