Barcelona forward Hamza Abdelkarim has identified his teammate, Lamine Yamal, as the player he believes is most deserving of winning the 2026 Ballon d’Or.

Yamal is part of the 30-man shortlist for this year’s Ballon d’Or, with the eventual winner expected to be announced in October.

“There are many players in the team who could win it [Ballon d’Or]. They would deserve it,” Abdelkarim said as quoted by Barca Universal as saying.

“But I think we can all agree that in Lamine’s case, it would be very deserved. I’m very happy to play alongside him every day,” he said.

Yamal lifted the World Cup with Spain during the summer and also helped Barcelona secure the LaLiga title last season.
