Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has disclosed that he’s not focusing on winning the Ballon d’Or Award any longer.
Recall that the Spanish international finished as runner-up in the 2025 Ballon d’Or vote behind Paris Saint-Germain star Ousmane Dembele despite winning La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Supercopa de Espana title with Barca last season.
Yamal told Mundo Deportivo this week that his attention is focused on helping Barca and Spain win something.

“I don’t think about it. It’s an award that, if you think about it, you’re not going to get an answer. It depends on what you win, how you play, and who votes. It’s not something that is decided by your play.
“I just want to enjoy myself and win with Barca and the national team.
“My game is not based on that (stats). It’s true that it creates controversy because when I play well, I don’t score, and when I score, I don’t play well, but I want to play well, for the team to win, and to keep it that way.”
