The South African government has urged South Africans to vote for Bafana Bafana and Mamelodi Sundown goalkeeper Ronwen Williams as he seeks to win the Yachine Trophy at the Ballon d’Or Awards.
Williams, who is the first African to be nominated for the prestigious award while playing on the continent, currently leads the English voting polls but is struggling to gain votes in the French voting poll, where is outside of the top five.
Williams cracked the nod for the Yashin Trophy nomination after his outstanding performances for Bafana Bafana and his club Mamelodi Sundowns, helping them to achieve success with his incredible shot-stopping and leadership abilities.

The Bafana Bafana shot-stopper is up against some of the best goalkeepers in the world such as Real Madrid’s Andriy Lunin, Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martínez, AC Milan’s Mike Maignan and many others.
The South African government took to X and called on all South Africans to vote for the reigning PSL player of the year as he seeks to make history.
“Mzansi, let’s support our own #RonwenWilliams who has been nominated for the Yachine Trophy at the Ballon d’Or Awards. Currently leads the English voting with 69.6%. 🇿🇦 🗳️ ⚽Please vote in English and French” the government posted on X.
