Pedro Picks Pedri for Ballon d’Or Says He Deserves It More Than Yamal and Dembele
Lazio winger Pedro has made it clear who he’s backing for the 2025 Ballon d’Or, and it’s not Lamine Yamal or Ousmane Dembele. The former Chelsea forward believes Barcelona’s Pedri deserves the top honour, saying he would give him full marks to win the prestigious award ahead of other contenders.
Pedri has been outstanding for Barcelona this season, cementing his place as one of the leading names in the race for the Ballon d’Or. The Spanish midfielder will be up against big names like Dembele, Yamal, Raphinha, Mohamed Salah, and others.
When asked about his choice, Pedro told El Día de Tenerife he has no doubts. “For me, Pedri deserves the maximum score,” Pedro said. “Lamine Yamal is also there, and of course players like Dembele or Raphinha, but I’d love to see Pedri win it. “He’s the best in the world in his position.”
