Barcelona stars Lamine Yamal & Raphinha’s updated Ballon d’Or odds after PSG’s UCL triumph | OneFootball

An update on the chances of one of Barcelona pair Lamine Yamal and Raphinha lifting this year’s Ballon d’Or has been forthcoming online.

And the info points towards the hopes of the pair beginning to fade.

The subject of the Ballon d’Or race has of course taken its place front and centre in the chatter across Europe once more over recent days.

This comes after Paris Saint-Germain secured the club’s first-ever title in the Champions League.

Ousmane Dembélé, who was already considered as being amongst the frontrunners to lift the ‘Golden Ball’, played a starring role in the Munich showcase, notching a pair of assists en route to a 5-0 drubbing of Inter Milan.

And if the latest word stemming from the media is anything to go by, then such exploits appear to have put Dembélé in prime position to be named world football’s best player.

As per French outlet Actu Foot, citing the latest bookmakers’ odds, PSG’s in-form frontman is now considered as having a 66% chance of winning the Ballon d’Or’

Lamine Yamal, meanwhile, sits some way back in 2nd on 27%, with Barcelona teammate Raphinha rounding out the top-3, joining Mohamed Salah on 9% odds.
