Lamine Yamal received the Di Stéfano Award for best player of the season from the director of MARCA.
The Barcelona player beat out such important footballers as Mbappé and Vinicius, and even his own teammates like Pedri and Raphinha, who were also in contention for the award. Despite being only 18 years old, the Barcelona player is already amassing an impressive collection of trophies.
“All the individual titles indicate that it has been a great season for the team. For me, it brings me happiness and pride. Accumulating awards at my age is very positive. I'm going to keep working and fighting to achieve things like this,” the Barcelona player told MARCA.
Lamine is excited about the team's return to Camp Nou. He sees it as if it were a new signing: “The fans mean so much. We've been playing in a stadium that wasn't ours. Montjuïc was fine, but it wasn't what we wanted. Camp Nou will be a huge support for everyone and will be a big boost for the rest of the season.”
One of Lamine Yamal's defining characteristics is his ambition. He wants to win everything and believes he's capable of doing so. When asked about the Ballon d'Or a few days ago, he naturally said that he didn't expect to win just one, but several throughout his career. 2026 is packed with challenges for the Barça player: with his club, with the national team, and individually. When asked what he wants among La Liga, the Champions League, the World Cup, and the Ballon d'Or, he doesn't hesitate at all: “I want it all. I hope I win it all, and as long as we can play, it's possible.”

Everyone will call this pride but what’s wrong with saying what you want? It’s not like every other player doesn’t want these things too

No problem our star boy. We love you 💜 but my advice for you is to avoid women and alcohol and other junk foods. Messi is the 🐐 GOAT in football and no body can be compared to him. But I request you to emulate the example of Ronaldo if it comes to caring for your body. You will rich far. Don't drink soda, beer, and any other unhealthy thing. Let me now greet Ronaldo fans. I saw you crying yesterday that Ronaldo is not on the poster of world cup. First of all, there are more posters to come. Secondly, FIFA doesn't choose who should be on the poster. The national football Federations of different countries choose who to put on posters in collaboration with FIFA. So if you are unhappy, blame Portugal Football Federation but not FIFA. If it was a FIFA problem, Portugal would have complained. But the noise is only online. I know you are good at playing victim card and being largely Madrid fans, Madrid is also good at complaining and playing victim card. I am not dictating, just wait you will see different posters for world cup. So trying to discredit FIFA because your idol cannot win something is not good. You are good at downgrading Messi achievements but it's not sustainable. Ronaldo cannot be the 🐐 GOAT. Even if you downgrade Messi in anyway, all people who know football with an independent mind will always choose Messi. That's why you find Ronaldo fans in in villages saying that Ronaldo is the goat because he played in EPL but the people of England who understands football and not biased will tell you that Messi is the goat. All independent minded people will choose Messi because they base on statistics and statistics don't lie.

People shouting stay humble, he’s arrogant.. what more do you expect him to say in that interview? “I don’t want them at all cos I’m so humble and don’t want to sound arrogant”? Every player wants this awards and trophies, not once but as many as possible, he may not get as many as possible but at least he’s bold enough to admit he wants them which is an ambition every player holds… Besides let’s not act like he’s not good enough to win such awards, kid is good you don’t have to like his attitude but truth b told he is good. Prolly needs to add more goals to his game but then again let’s not forget he’s only 18 and just starting his career and soon will be racking up 30 goals a season kinda stats… You don’t have to h8 the kid… Let him enjoy his moment..
