Yamal will not fly with Barcelona! Surprising details emerge about his trip to the Ballon d'Or ceremony
Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal is preparing for the 2026 Ballon d'Or ceremony in spectacular fashion. According to Topskills Sports UK on X, the young footballer will fly to London by private jet and travel separately from the Catalan club's official delegation.
According to the source, Yamal will be accompanied by 16 personally selected guests. The list includes his parents, brother, partner Inés García, cousins, close friends and members of the footballer's personal team.
Yamal is expected to spend the night in the British capital after the ceremony, regardless of the voting outcome. He plans to return to Barcelona on Tuesday.
For the young Spaniard, the ceremony will be one of the biggest events of the season, with the football world focused on the Catalan club's rising star. Simply attending the ceremony does not guarantee victory, but Yamal will once again be at the centre of attention on an evening that will determine the winner of one of the most prestigious individual awards in world football.
