The most anticipated awards are the Golden Ball for the tournament's best player, the Golden Boot for the top scorer, the Golden Glove for the best goalkeeper, and the Best Young Player award for the most outstanding emerging talent of the competition.

France captain Kylian Mbappé leads the scoring charts with 10 goals, followed by Lionel Messi with 8 goals, while Jude Bellingham has 7 goals. Harry Kane has scored 6 goals, while Spain's Mikel Oyarzabal has 5 goals and still has a chance to add to his tally in the final match.

The performances of Messi, Mbappé, and Oyarzabal have been among the biggest highlights, with their goals and assists playing a crucial role in their teams' success.
The Golden Glove is also expected to be highly competitive, with several goalkeepers producing outstanding performances throughout the knockout stage. Meanwhile, the Best Young Player award appears to be a showdown between the tournament's brightest young talents, who have impressed with their performances and shown that they represent the future of world football.
