As anticipation builds for the FIFA World Cup 2026, adidas has officially unveiled the tournament's individual player awards, introducing redesigned versions of the Golden Ball, Golden Boot, and Golden Glove trophies.
Created specifically for the FIFA World Cup 2026, the trio of trophies blends adidas football heritage with modern design, celebrating the players who will leave their mark on the biggest tournament in the sport.

The adidas Golden Ball, awarded to the competition's best player, draws direct inspiration from the TRIONDA Official Match Ball. Its sculpted design incorporates visual elements from the tournament ball, creating a trophy that reflects both innovation and excellence on the pitch.

For the Golden Boot, adidas looked to one of the most influential football silhouettes ever created: the Predator. Awarded to the tournament's leading scorer, the trophy transforms the iconic boot into a metallic centerpiece, symbolizing the precision, control, and finishing ability required to top the scoring charts.

Meanwhile, the Golden Glove honors the tournament's standout goalkeeper. The trophy features a sculpted hand form that pays tribute to the reflexes, athleticism, and game-changing saves that often define World Cup campaigns.
Together, the three awards share a unified design language that is unmistakably adidas, while highlighting the individual achievements that make the FIFA World Cup such a compelling spectacle.
The unveiling adds another chapter to adidas' growing FIFA World Cup 2026 portfolio, which already includes the TRIONDA match ball, new federation kits, and the recently introduced F50 Hyperfast Evo boot.
With the tournament set to kick off across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, the race for the Golden Ball, Golden Boot, and Golden Glove has officially begun.
