“As a Barça fan and as president of Barça, I want a Barça player to win the Ballon d’Or,” Laporta said.
“There are many candidates, and we are very proud of them all. And if it is Lamine Yamal, well, I will be very happy because he’s had a great season and is constantly entertaining the football world with his performances.”
