Gavi Says If Yamal Doesn’t Win Ballon d’Or This Year He Will Win Many in the Future
Spain and Barcelona midfielder Gavi has thrown his full support behind his young teammate Lamine Yamal, saying the rising star has what it takes to win multiple Ballon d’Or titles in the years ahead, even if he doesn’t clinch the 2025 award.
Yamal, just 18, had a standout season under new Barcelona coach Hansi Flick, playing a key role in helping the club lift both the LaLiga trophy and the Copa del Rey. While the official Ballon d’Or winner will be revealed in September, Yamal is already being mentioned alongside big names like Kylian Mbappe, Mohamed Salah, Vitinha, Ousmane Dembele, Pedri, and Raphinha as one of the top contenders.
Speaking about Yamal’s chances, Gavi said, “I really hope he wins. But even if he doesn’t, he’s only 18. Being among the best at this age is special on its own. I’m proud of him.” Gavi went on to praise the young winger’s attitude and growth, saying, “He’s an amazing player. Every day he keeps improving. He’s a joy to watch, even in training. With his mindset, I have no doubt he’ll win many Ballon d’Or awards in the future.”
Former English footballer, Jamie Redknapp, makes bold suggestion regarding Mohamed Salah to leave the club, Liverpool.
The suggestion came after Liverpool manager Arne Slot criticized the player — a move Redknapp called out following Salah’s benching in the last match.
The former player shared “I don’t necessarily think in January. I just think we have got to let this settle. But I don’t foresee that he will see out the two years of his contract. I think it might be more in the summer.”
Arsenal football manager Mikel Arteta speaks on the team’s defeat against Aston Villa, 2–1, in their match on Saturday.
It can be recalled that Aston Villa scored a goal in the first half, but Arsenal scored back in the second half. After equalizing, Aston Villa scored another goal.
“In the first half we had moments, obviously had the best chance after a foul on Riccy [Calafiori] that Watkins goes through,” Arteta said.
“In the second half we started really well. Scored a goal and we were really dominant.”
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
