Rafinha's "Golden Ball" confession: "I considered myself worthy of first place"

Barcelona winger Rafinha Dias commented on the results of the "Golden Ball 2025" voting.

Idman.Biz reports that the Brazilian footballer took fifth place in France Football's list of the best players of the year. The Golden Ball award was given to PSG striker Ousmane Dembele.

"I was disappointed. I expected more. I expected to be in the top three at least. I knew it would be difficult to win, as a lot depends on the success in the Champions League. That's why I was disappointed with my place.

But I understand that it depends on many things beyond my control. I can say that I am very happy with the season I had, and no individual award can undo the success I achieved last season.

Personally, I would put myself in first place.

Lamine and Pedri could be placed in the following places.

Dembele could be fourth. This is a fair choice," said Rafinha.
