French national team and PSG striker Usman Dembele won the 2025 "Golden Ball". Lamin Yamal took second place, with the Frenchman predicted to win many more major individual football awards.
According to Lent.az, Transfermarkt has compiled a symbolic team of "Golden Ball" winners with the most awards.
The team includes Ronaldo, Marco van Basten, Johan Cruyff, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Michel Platini, Rodri, Matthias Sammer, Franz Beckenbauer, Fabio Cannavaro and Lev Yashin.
The editorial board's choice of Rodri was the most controversial in the comments:
* "You chose Rodri instead of Zidane, Modrić, Nedved and others. What football are you watching?"
* "Lothar Matthäus is a thousand times better than Rodri."
* "Ronaldinho, Matthäus, Zidane, Nedved, Gullit... You chose Rodri from among so many legends?"
Will there be a place for Dembele in this team? Maybe Yamal will be here in a year or two?
