Specifically, at the 2025 Ballon d'Or awards ceremony on the morning of September 23rd, Yamal (18 years old) was honored in the category of Best Young Player of the Year.

He beat other strong contenders such as Joao Neves, Kenan Yildiz, Desire Doue, and his teammate Pau Cubarsi to receive this award from former French central defender Raphael Varane.

Yamal became the first player to win the Young Player of the Year award for two consecutive years. Last year, along with winning Euro 2024 with the Spanish national team, Yamal won this award at the age of 17.

Speaking on the awards stage, Yamal said: "I feel very honored to be here again." He thanked FC Barcelona, ​​his teammates at Barcelona, ​​the Spanish national team, and his family.

"I don't know if I'm ready for the big prize yet. Maybe we'll meet again," Yamal said, promising to meet again when he receives a bigger award, possibly the 2026 Ballon d'Or.

In the race for the 2025 Ballon d'Or, Yamal finished second behind PSG and France star Ousmane Dembele.

Yamal had a breakout season, becoming a key player in Barca's three domestic league titles. However, he still couldn't match Dembele's treble-winning achievement ( Champions League, Ligue 1, and French Cup).

However, Yamal's future is extremely bright, and if he continues to work hard, he could soon become the new Ballon d'Or winner.
