Aitana Bonmatí and Lamine Yamal will travel to Paris today. Both are the clear favorites to be crowned at the Théâtre du Châtelet. The Blaugrana midfielder with the second Ballon d’Or in her history. The 17-year-old winger, with the Kopa Trophy awarded to the best player under 21 years of age after a brilliant year in which he won the European Championship with the Spanish team.
President Joan Laporta will lead the Barcelona expedition. He will be accompanied by the sports vice president, Rafa Yuste, the institutional vice president, Elena Fort, and the directors Xavi Puig and Joan Soler. Jorge Mendes, Lamine Yamal’s agent, with whom Laporta has a pending conversation to discuss his renewal, will also attend.

There are more nominated athletes who will walk the red carpet. Alexia Putellas, double winner of the Ballon d’Or who last year was able to overcome her serious knee injury and returned to action with 15 goals and 11 assists. Also the Norwegian Caroline Graham Hansen, who scored 33 goals and 26 assists, numbers that support her candidacy.

However, Aitana Bonmatí completed a perfect course. Her 26 goals and 18 assists helped the Barça team lift the Champions League, the F League, the Queen’s Cup and the Spanish Super Cup. Bonmatí also added the conquest of the Nations League with the Spanish team. A title that supports the candidacy of the aforementioned Alexia, as well as Salma Paralluelo, Patri Guijarro and Mariona Caldentey -now at Arsenal-.
