Spain manager Luis de la Fuente has been named Men’s Coach of the Year at the 2026 Ballon d’Or ceremony following his team’s triumph at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The award was announced on Monday at the ongoing ceremony at the London Palladium in England, with Benitez eventually declaring De la Fuente the winner.

The Spanish tactician beat Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique, Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany and Aston Villa manager Unai Emery to claim the honour.

De la Fuente exchanged handshakes with Emery and Spain international Lamine Yamal before stepping onto the stage to receive the award.

The recognition adds to De la Fuente’s achievements with the Spanish national team following their reported World Cup success.
