Monday evening, in Turin, the Golden Boy ceremony took place. A distinction which rewards the best young player in the world according to numerous criteria. If unsurprisingly, Jude Bellingham won the day, thanks to his full season and his thunderous start to his career at Real Madrid, another nugget made a lot of talk about her, without even being present during this 21st edition .
It is obviously Lamine Yamal. Author of one goal and three assists this season in La Liga with FC Barcelona, in 15 days, the 16-year-old Spaniard did not participate in the ceremony for the simple reason that he had class the next day , or this Tuesday, and that he decided to live “a normal life” as explained by the two presenters of the evening. A wise decision which shows all the maturity of young Yamal, who still finished on the Golden Boy podium behind Jamal Musiala and therefore Jude Bellingham.
