Aitana Bonmatí is probably the best player in the world. Double Ballon d’Or (2024, 2025), the 27-year-old midfielder was alongside Ousmane Dembélé in Paris a few weeks ago to collect the Grail of individual distinctions. However, as she confided to the Cadena SERshe wouldn’t necessarily have given it to the Frenchman…
“For me, the top player is Pedri. I believe that it is not respected enough in terms of individual prices. He brings a lot to his teams. In the environment of Barça or the selection, he is essential, and you can feel that he is not there. (…) Without taking away merit from Lamine Yamal or Dembélé, we tend to highlight offensive players, those who do not have stats are less highlighted”she explained.
