He also has previous experience presenting sporting events, having worked on the Olympics as well as the Bundesliga, Champions League and international football.
As well as the best player award, the Best Men's Coach will also be named, with Leicester City's Claudio Ranieri competing against Fernando Santos and Zinedine Zidane.
The FIFA World XI and the Puskas Award for best goal of 2016 will also be announced at the ceremony, as well as numerous other awards.
