The football world is in turmoil after Lamine Yamal’s father suddenly spoke out with angry accusations, claiming that his son – the Barcelona prodigy – was robbed of the Ballon d’Or at the Gala night in Paris.

This year’s Ballon d’Or event has caused a lot of controversy when Yamal, only 17 years old, was among the top candidates. Fans everywhere expected him to go down in history as the youngest owner of the most prestigious title in football. However, the final result shocked everyone: Yamal left empty-handed, while the gold cup belonged to a senior star.

Yamal’s father exploded

Immediately after the awards ceremony, Mr. Mounir Nasroui, Lamine Yamal’s father, expressed his anger to the media. He did not hesitate to affirm:

“Everyone can see clearly who deserved it more. My son had an extraordinary season, but politics, money and big names took away his chance. This is not football, this is a setup!”

This heavy accusation immediately caused a storm. International media reported it, while social networks exploded with millions of comments in just a few hours.

Barca fans were outraged, Real fans were gloating

The online community was clearly divided into two factions. Barcelona fans and many neutral fans sympathized, thinking that Yamal had a truly impressive season and deserved to be honored. They condemned the Golden Ball as increasingly becoming a “political game” instead of honoring performances on the field.

“Yamal was blatantly robbed! At 17 years old, he did what the whole world took his hat off to, but was still eliminated just because he did not have enough power behind the scenes.”

“The Golden Ball is now just a commercial title. It is a shame.”

On the contrary, Real Madrid fans and many anti-Barca fans mocked, saying that Yamal’s father was just looking for an excuse to justify the defeat.

“If he was good enough, he would have won. Don’t blame the underground forces.”

“The Golden Ball is not for parties in Paris.” (referring to the party Yamal organized before the award ceremony).

Experts speak out

Many football experts could not stand aside. Some agreed that Yamal was “underestimated” because of his young age, while veteran stars were favored. But there were also strong objections:

“Yamal is talented, no one denies it. But the Golden Ball is a process. 17 years old is just the beginning, today’s failure will be the motivation for tomorrow.”

Risk of image cracks

What made the situation more tense was that Lamine Yamal himself remained completely silent, not commenting on the results. His father’s outburst unintentionally damaged the image of the “humble prodigy”, as the media labeled Yamal’s family as “complainers” and “disrespectful of titles”.

The big question remains unanswered

Is there really a “hidden force” that prevented Yamal from winning the Ballon d’Or? Or is this just the anger of a father who is not satisfied with his son’s failure?

Whatever the answer, one thing is clear: the accusations of Lamine Yamal’s father have turned this year’s awards ceremony into the center of unprecedented controversy. And the football world will remember this chaotic Paris night for many years to come.
