The Barcelona star Crowned Best Female Soccer Player in the World for 2025
An extensive committee of 127 judges, including players, coaches, and journalists from worldwide, has voted Aitana Bonmatí as the global number one female footballer for 2025.
The Judging Methodology Was Conducted
All panelists was instructed to select and rank their top 40 players. The number one pick earned 40 points, with points decreasing by one for each subsequent position, down to 1 point for the fortieth player.
All voter tallies were added together to create a preliminary count. To ensure fairness and diminish the impact of outlier scores, the top individual point tally awarded to a player was then deducted to arrive at the definitive ranking.
