Stefan Johansen, the first recipient of Gullballen.

Gullballen (English: the Golden Ball) is a Norwegian football award given by the Norwegian Football Federation to the best male and female Norwegian footballers each year. The award replaced Kniksen of the Year as the main award given to the best Norwegian footballer in a calendar year.

The first award was given in 2014 to Stefan Johansen,[1] Until 2018, the award was given to only one player, either male or female. In 2015, Ada Hegerberg became the first woman to win the award.[2] Hegerberg has won the award three times (in 2015, 2016 and 2018) and is the only player to win it more than twice.[3] Gullballen has been given out at Norwegian sport award Idrettsgallaen since 2015.
