Numbers that impress

Yamal enjoyed remarkable 2024 /25 season with Barcelona featuring in 55 matches, scoring 18 goal & delivering 25 assist.

His contributions were key in securing both La liga and the Copa del Rey for the Catalan giants.

Battle with Dembele

Despite Yamal’s glittering campaign, early signals point to Dembele as the frontrunner. Still Yamal’s presence at the ceremony with his family underlines ambition to claim football's top honor.
