Lamine Yamal Reveals Ballon d’Or Dream and Celebration Plans

Barcelona & Spain wonderkid Lamine Yamal's revealed his ultimate ambition (winning the prestigious Ballon d’or) awarded annually by France Football to the world’s best player.

In interview with Catalan daily Mundo Deportivo, the 18 year old winger said:

"Winning the Ballon d’or's dream, of course. It’s one of the greatest prizes player can achieve"

How He Would Celebrate

When asked how he would mark the achievement, Yamal replied:

"I would celebrate with my family & friends, the people who're always by my side"

Staying Grounded

The teenager admitted lifting the trophy at such young age would be "amazing" but stressed he remains focused on improvement:

"If it doesn’t happen now, I’ll keep working every day to get better. That’s all that matters"

Tough Competition

Yamal's among the frontrunners for the award this year though he faces stiff competition from France’s Ousmane Dembele, who's boosted his chances with standout performances for Paris Saint Germain.
