How much is a football player paid for winning the Ballon D'or?
Normal a player doesn't get paid for winning the Ballon d'OR award.
What a player does get is global recognition and an increase in reputation which may result in an increase in said player's market value thus giving him leverage for a better contract either at a new club or his current team.
Winning the Ballon d'OR is simply about the award's allure. A lot of players don't care about it these days, though, as it's more about effective marketing than anything else.
