🏆 Ballon d’Or 2025: Who’s Leading the Race as of June?
With the Ballon d’Or ceremony just a few months away, Score 90’s latest rankings have sparked massive debate across the football world. At the top of the current standings is teenage sensation Lamine Yamal, followed closely by Ousmane Dembélé, Pedri, Mohamed Salah, and Kylian Mbappé.
🌟 Yamal's Meteoric Rise
Yamal, still only 17, has taken European football by storm. His electrifying performances for Barcelona in both La Liga and the Champions League have earned him comparisons to a young Lionel Messi. Not only has he dazzled fans with his dribbling and creativity, but he’s also produced when it counts—delivering in high-stakes moments. While some critics argue he’s too young for the award, others believe his standout year justifies the hype.
🔁 Why Dembélé’ Deserves the Ballon door 2025
In second place is Ousmane Dembélé, enjoying one of the most productive seasons of his career. After years of inconsistency and injuries, he has become a vital part of PSG’s attack, particularly in the Champions League. Should PSG go all the way in Europe, Dembélé could very well leapfrog Yamal—especially if the Barcelona vote splits between multiple contenders like Yamal, Pedri, and others.
🧠 Midfield Maestro & Veterans in Contention
Pedri holds third in the current rankings, earning praise for his technical brilliance and leadership in Barcelona’s midfield. Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, coming in fourth, has delivered another top-tier season filled with goals and key performances in the Premier League. Meanwhile, fifth-placed Kylian Mbappé continues to shine on the individual level but still lacks a Champions League title, which could hurt his chances once again.
🔮 Who Has the Edge Heading Into September?
Yamal: A historic win could be in sight if Barcelona cap off the season with major silverware. His age and breakout impact might charm voters.
Dembélé: With PSG possibly on the cusp of a UCL title, his resurgence could win hearts and headlines.
Pedri: A consistent, steady presence who might benefit from a split vote if neither Yamal nor Dembélé dominates the final stretch.
📅 Closing Thoughts
With a few decisive months left before ballots are cast, this year’s Ballon d’Or race is far from over. Whether it’s a new teenage icon, a player reborn, or a steady midfield force, the football world is guaranteed a compelling story come September.
