The shortlist for the Lev Yashin medal at the Ballon d\'Or in Paris includes ten goalkeepers.

The Ballon d\'Or is a prestigious football award awarded annually by the French football magazine France Football since 1956. The award goes to the best footballer of the year and the Ballon d\'Or event, to be held in Paris, will be awarded for the first time the title of best goalkeeper of the year. The trophy was named after Lev Yashin.

There have been times in history when the world\'s leading soccer goalkeepers were Czech player Frantisek Planicka and then Alexei Khomich, best known for playing for the Dynamo Moscow soccer team during the 1945 tour of Great Britain. Journalists, footballers, and coaches still remember him, reading history and watching documents, while Lev Yashin cleverly monitored the goal of the Soviet team and the international team, he noted.

It all speaks to the respect of our country and our school of football goalkeepers, he said. We are happy that the gold medal is named after him and I am proud to have played with him for seven years. Together with Yashin, we are the winners of a bronze medal at the 1966 FIFA World Cup. I would like to have a better hope, but I doubt we will ever be so successful in the future, Kavazashvili said.

Lev Yashin October 22, 1929 - March 20, 1990, was the goalkeeper for Dynamo Moscow FC and the Soviet national team. He is considered to be the greatest goalkeeper in the history of football and has had the remarkable ability to turn a goalkeeper into a game. He is still the only goalkeeper in football history to win the Ballon d’Or.

Throughout his career he has set a total of more than 150 penalties, more than any other goalkeeper in history, and has a record of more than 270 clean sheets, meaning he has not conceded a goal in more than 270 games. He played in three FIFA World Cups in 1958, 1962, and 1966 and has a record of four points in 12 Football World Cup finals. He also appeared at the 1970 World Cup in Mexico but is in third place with an assistant coach.
