Awards
The following awards were given at the conclusion of the tournament. They were all sponsored by Adidas.
| Golden Ball | Silver Ball | Bronze Ball |
|---|---|---|
| Kelechi Nwakali | Victor Osimhen | Aly Malle |
| Golden Boot | Silver Boot | Bronze Boot |
| Victor Osimhen | Johannes Eggestein | Samuel Chukwueze |

| Samuel Diarra | ||
| FIFA Fair Play Award | ||
| Ecuador | ||
In December 2015, Nigerian Samuel Chukwueze was retroactively awarded the Bronze boot award. Kelechi Nwakali had erroneously been awarded the award immediately following the tournament but as he had played more minutes (630) than Chukwueze (535) in the tournament the award was re-allocated.
