The Ballon d'Or seemed to have a clear favorite until just a few weeks ago. Mohamed Salah, with a spectacular season in the Premier League and impressive numbers, was emerging as the top candidate for the award. However, Liverpool's elimination in the Champions League Round of 16 has drastically reduced his chances. Without the European title in his hands, the Egyptian has practically been ruled out of the race.

-Raphinha

With Salah out of the picture, Raphinha has taken the lead in the race for the award. The Brazilian is having a stellar Champions League campaign, with 11 goals in the competition, playing a key role in Barcelona's attack. If the Blaugrana manage to secure both the European and LaLiga titles, the winger would have great chances of winning the most prestigious individual trophy.

-Pedri

Another name that has gained prominence in the battle is Pedri. The Canarian midfielder has become the beacon of the team led by Hansi Flick, orchestrating the game with his quality and vision. His performance in crucial moments of the season could be decisive for his aspirations. If Barcelona achieves collective success, his candidacy would gain even more weight.

-Lamine Yamal

The third contender is Lamine Yamal, who, despite his youth, is shining brightly. His exceptional talent and ability to unbalance games have made him one of the sensations of European football. If he continues to dazzle in the coming months and his team secures important titles, it wouldn't be unreasonable to see him among the top contenders for the award.
