The 15th annual Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai are taking place on Friday evening, December 27, as some of the world’s best players, coaches and directors assemble for a night on the red carpet.
The Globe Soccer Awards in Dubai celebrate the best players, coaches and directors based on their achievements over the 2024 calendar year.
There were Serie A representatives in every main Globe Soccer Awards category, but Inter and Atalanta are represented more than any other sides in the division.
Inter, Atalanta, Roma, Juventus and Bologna are all represented in various forms in the list of Globe Soccer Awards nominees, as is Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti of Real Madrid.
There are also categories specifically designated for players based in the Middle East, and for their respective clubs, given that this year’s Globe Soccer Awards took place in Dubai.
