Alvaro Morata has tipped his international team-mate Lamine Yamal for the highest individual honours in world football after witnessing the youngster's meteoric rise firsthand. The Leganes striker, who captained Spain to European glory, believes the Barcelona sensation possesses a level of maturity that defies his teenage years.

Paris Saint-Germain star Fabian Ruiz is firmly convinced his unprecedented trophy haul makes him a prime candidate for the Ballon d'Or. After lifting both the World Cup with Spain and the Champions League with his club, the midfielder feels his historic achievements are simply unrivalled, pointing to recent precedents as proof he can claim the ultimate prize.

Barcelona and Spain sensation Lamine Yamal has made the surprising admission that he was not satisfied with his personal performances during the World Cup. Despite playing a pivotal role in La Roja's success on the world stage, the teenage forward believes he failed to meet the lofty expectations he sets for himself.

Barcelona sensation Lamine Yamal has officially thrown his hat into the ring for the 2026 Ballon d'Or, insisting he deserves to be crowned the best player on the planet. The 19-year-old superstar believes he and Kylian Mbappe currently stand alone at the top of the game, following a trophy-laden season for club and country.
