Lamine Yamal, Barcelona winger, was asked about who deserves to win the Ballon d'Or and responded without hesitation pointing to himself. The 17-year-old player showed great confidence in his own abilities by making this statement.
As well as pointing to himself, Yamal also mentioned Kylian Mbappé as another name that deserves recognition in the race for the award. The French striker, who currently plays for Real Madrid, is frequently cited as one of the best players in the world.
Yamal has been standing out as one of the great promises of European football, having already earned a place in the Spanish national team and impressed both in La Liga and the Champions League. His promising season at Barcelona appears to be the basis for his self-confidence in putting himself forward for the prestigious award.
