The Barcelona midfielder supports his teammate to win the Ballon d’Or in the future

In a candid one-on-one conversation with Adri Contreras, Barcelona playmaker Dani Olmo offered some interesting insights.

The former RB Leipzig star made a bold prediction about the next Ballon d’Or winner, while he was also asked to predict the winner of this season’s Champions League.

Olmo’s main predictions for 2025

Olmo, who arrives after a few tense weeks in which the registration of his contract was at stake.

But thanks to a strong fight from Barcelona, ​​the club obtained a precautionary measure from the Higher Sports Council, a verdict that caused a stir in Spanish football.

However, throughout this period, Olmo was extremely patient and made it clear that he wanted to continue at Barcelona.

Therefore, it will surprise very few that Olmo predicted that Barcelona would reach the final of this season’s Champions League. But the most interesting thing is that he chose Liverpool as Barcelona’s rival in the final.

“My prediction for the Champions League final? “Barcelona against Liverpool.” said the Spanish international.

The player then praised his teammate Lamine Yamal, supporting the youngster to win the Ballon d’Or.

“Lamine Yamal will win all the Ballon d’Ors he wants to win” said Olmo, who has played a key role in shaping Barcelona’s creative force, along with Raphinha and Yamal himself.

If Olmo continues to deliver results at Barcelona, ​​one would expect Yamal to significantly improve his productivity in the final third and ultimately make a strong push for next season’s Ballon d’Or title.

Olmo is certainly not the only one backing Yamal to win the Ballon d’Or in the near future. But it remains to be seen whether the Spaniard can live up to the high expectations.
