Father of Yamal Comments on Son’s Second Place in Ballon d’Or Voting

Mounir Nasraoui, father of 18-year-old Barcelona and Spain winger Lamine Yamal, spoke about his son’s second place in the prestigious Ballon d’Or voting.

The award went to Paris Saint-Germain French forward Ousmane Dembélé.

I think this is the biggest... not robbery, I won't say that, but the greatest moral harm to a human being. Because I believe that Lamine Yamal is the best player in the world by far, by a huge margin. Not because he's my son, but because he's the best player in the world. I don't think he has rivals. We have to say that something very strange has happened here.

Last season, Lamine Yamal played 55 matches for Barcelona, scoring 18 goals and providing 25 assists.

Earlier, it was reported that the 18-year-old became the youngest player ever to finish in the top three of Ballon d’Or voting.
