A behind the scenes look at football's glitziest and most prestigious awards evening...

As ever, our intrepid cameras were with our players from start to finish for the 2023 Ballon d’Or ceremony.

Beginning at Manchester Airport where Ruben Dias tells Bernardo he is ‘not a gentleman’, we then travel to Paris and watch as the lads prepare for the evening ahead.

In a fascinating glimpse away from public view, we have Rodrigo‘s ‘should I shave or not?’ quandary.

Ederson has issues with his suit handkerchief as well as revealing he and his son’s secret handshake.

Then it’s off to the ceremony where Erling Haaland collects the Gerd Muller Trophy and City win Club of the Year for the second successive year.

There’s plenty of laughs, camaraderie and gold and glitter on a proud night for Manchester City.
