Lamine Yamal has won the 2025 Kopa Trophy.
The teenager has enjoyed a huge season for club and country, reaching the Champions League semi-finals, and is among the top 10 of the Ballon d’Or vote, too.
With Yamal a late challenger to Ousmane Dembele for the main award, the Barcelona star is the first player to have won two Kopa Trophies.
