Lamine Yamal: I Will Not Campaign for the 2026 Ballon d'Or
Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal says he will not campaign or plead for the 2026 Ballon d'Or award. Speaking ahead of Barcelona's Champions League match against Feyenoord, the 19-year-old said fans and voters are free to make their own decisions. He added that winning the award is beyond his personal control. Yamal said any recognition would reflect the work done by Barcelona and the Spanish national team over the past year. The 2026 Ballon d'Or ceremony is scheduled for October 26 in London.
