France Football have began to announce player placements in the Ballon d'Or, and Chelsea's Cole Palmer finished outside the top 20.

France Football have announced that Chelsea's Cole Palmer finished 25th in the Ballon d'Or, an impressive debut position for the England international.

Despite Chelsea's woes last season, Palmer was one of the standout footballers in the world, and with his 22 goals and 11 assists, he earned himself his first ever Ballon d'Or nomination.

His lack of trophy success may have prevented him from a higher finish, but 25th is still a lofty position for his first nomination.
