2025 Ballon d'Or: Data Storm Arrives – Who Will Conquer
With Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain securing their spots in the Champions League final, the battle for the 2025 Ballon d'Or is heating up. Marca points out that this year's award will place greater emphasis on a player's overall performance. The results of the Champions League, Nations League, and Club World Cup, along with individual player statistics, will all be key factors.
Barcelona's trio is undoubtedly the most competitive group at the moment: Raphinha leads the way with phenomenal stats of 32 goals and 22 assists, including a Champions League-leading 13 goals; Yamal has also performed excellently, contributing 15 goals and 21 assists, especially shining in the Champions League knockout stages; while Pedri's stats are relatively modest (6 goals and 7 assists), as the core of Barcelona's midfield, his organizational skills and tactical value cannot be ignored. If he can help Spain win the Nations League, it will greatly increase his chances.
The core players of the two Champions League finalists are also highly competitive: Dembele has become Paris Saint-Germain's new leader after the departure of Neymar and Mbappe, contributing 33 goals and 11 assists this season; Lautaro, if he can lead Inter Milan to win the Champions League and Serie A double, will become a strong contender for the Ballon d'Or. His current stats are 22 goals and 3 assists.
In addition, some other players' stats are also impressive: Mbappe has maintained his efficiency since joining Real Madrid, contributing 36 goals and 5 assists, and he still has the opportunity to compete for the La Liga and Club World Cup titles; Salah has contributed 33 goals and 23 assists this season, but Liverpool's overall performance may affect his chances; Kane has scored 36 goals and provided 10 assists in the Bundesliga, and he will lead Bayern Munich to challenge for the Club World Cup. It is worth noting that the two goalkeepers of the Champions League final – Donnarumma and Sommer – if they can continue their outstanding performance in the semi-finals, may break the long-term monopoly of the Ballon d'Or by attacking players.
Looking back at 2004, Shevchenko won the Ballon d'Or with the Serie A title, surpassing Deco (Champions League + European Championship), proving the importance of team honors. So, in 2025, who can rely on more outstanding data and more brilliant achievements to finally conquer the Ballon d'Or?
