PSG forward Ferran Torres has shared his views on the upcoming 2026 Ballon d'Or award. Rather than naming a specific favorite, the Spaniard stated that the trophy should be awarded to the player who most deserves it.
Let the one who deserves it win. If a Spaniard wins, it's even better. Ferran Torres
There are currently six Spanish players nominated for the prestigious award this year, including Lamine Yamal, Rodri, Marc Cucurella, Fabian Ruiz, and Pau Cubarsi. Their strong standing is largely supported by the national team's success at the 2026 World Cup, where Spain defeated Argentina in the final to secure the title.
The winner of the Ballon d'Or is set to be announced on September 26 in London.
