When a football personality as outspoken as Zlatan Ibrahimović gives his prediction, people listen. And this time, the former Barcelona striker has made his choices crystal clear. 🇸🇪👀
Asked who he expects to win La Liga, Zlatan’s answer was simple: Barcelona. 🔵🔴🏆
But he didn’t stop there.
When the conversation moved to the Champions League, the Swedish icon once again backed Barça. Barcelona. 😮💨🔥
And then came the question that has dominated football discussions for months: Who deserves the 2026 Ballon d’Or?
Zlatan didn’t hesitate.
👑 “Lamine Yamal.”
The 19-year-old Barcelona superstar has continued to attract huge praise as the Ballon d’Or debate intensifies. Yamal has already spoken openly about believing he has done enough to be considered for the award, while stressing that he does not intend to beg for votes or run a personal campaign.
Zlatan’s latest endorsement adds another major voice to the growing conversation around the Barça wonderkid. The former Camp Nou forward had also recently described Yamal as “my guy”, making it clear where his admiration lies.
And the timing could hardly be more interesting. Barça are chasing domestic and European glory under Hansi Flick, while Yamal continues to establish himself as one of the central figures of this Barcelona generation.
With the Ballon d’Or ceremony approaching, the debate is getting hotter by the day. 🔥🏆
Zlatan has picked Barcelona for La Liga.
Zlatan has picked Barcelona for the Champions League.
And Zlatan has picked Lamine Yamal for the Ballon d’Or. 👑🇪🇸
