Cristiano Ronaldo is the favourite to win the inaugural Best FIFA Men's Player award at Monday's ceremony in Zurich.
The Real Madrid star, who claimed a fourth Ballon d'Or of his glittering career in December, is expected to beat fellow nominees Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann in the race to be named the world's best player of the past year.
The award is a modernisation of the FIFA World Player of the Year, which was last won by Messi in 2009, before the merger with France Football created the FIFA Ballon d'Or. The world game's governing body ended that collaboration last year.
Prizes will also be given to the best women's player and the best coaches in men's and women's football, along with a fair play award.
Zinedine Zidane, Claudio Ranieri and Fernando Santos are up for the men's coaching prize, with the Real Madrid boss the early favourite.
The new Fan Award, recognising "an outstanding fan moment or gesture from the calendar year", will also be given.
Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund fans, who sang 'You'll Never Walk Alone' together before last season's Europa League match at Anfield, are among the nominees.
They will contest ADO Den Haag, whose supporters brought soft toys for young fans of rivals Feyenoord, and the Iceland fans at Euro 2016, who are recognised for the 'Huh' chant that became famous during their remarkable run to the Euro 2016 quarter-finals.
Thanks for the terrific ride , We will come back stronger! signing out… for now :) July 3, 2016
