Ballon d’Or 2026: Lamine Yamal Charters Private Jet for London Ceremony

Lamine Yamal has chartered a private jet to travel to Monday’s 2026 Ballon d’Or ceremony in London with his family and close friends. Football expert Victor Navarro, quoted by Barca News, says Yamal will not travel with Barcelona’s official delegation so his supporters can share the occasion with him. The 19-year-old Spanish winger, who finished second last year, is among the leading contenders after his performances for club and country. In Paris last year, he also reportedly arranged a celebration with family and friends ahead of the awards.
