He truly rose to the occasion.
Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal, at just a young age, is already making waves in football and has been named the best young player for the 2024-2025 season.
Details: The young talent from Barcelona received the first award at the Ballon d’Or ceremony—the Raymond Kopa Trophy. In the voting process, Yamal surpassed competitors like Kenan Yildiz, João Neves, Dean Huijsen, and his teammate Pau Cubarsí. Notably, Yamal is the first player to win the Raymond Kopa Trophy in consecutive years.
Reminder: Yamal’s main goal is to win the Ballon d’Or itself, as he is seen as a top contender for the evening’s main award. His Barcelona teammate Raphinha and PSG winger Ousmane Dembélé are also strong favorites.
Those around Yamal are increasingly confident that he will come away with the Ballon d’Or.
