A young talent that keeps on shining. Melchie Dumornay continues showing why she is considered one of the best young players, being a crucial element for Lyon to become Ligue 1 Champions. The 21-year-old forward achieved back-to-back recognition as the Best Young Player of the UEFA Women’s Champions League, as well as being part of the Team of the Season after notching six goals. Her name is also one of three Concacaf players to appear in this year’s Ballon d’Or nominees.

Jonathan David made history by becoming Canada’s all-time top scorer with 36 goals in 67 matches and the Concacaf player with the most set-piece goals during the 2024/25 season (12). With a lethal finish, the 25-year-old forward kept LOSC Lille competitive in France and Europe, scoring 7 UEFA Champions League goals, the most by a Concacaf player in a single edition of the tournament in the 21st century. David also netted 16 Ligue 1 goals, the fourth-most of any player in the league.
