Lamine Yamal may be the winner of the Ballon d'Or, but his age factor is something they may consider and how e never won a champions league before, so they may consider Démbelé for it, but anything can change at the cause, we cant predict.
There's the problem, Lamine Yamal hasn't won anything, just one league, and for the League it would be very unfair to go over Dembele and Vintinha, in fact he didn't even play in the Club World Cup, Yamal's thing is just pure publicity and marketing, for me he hasn't done much, it's just that he's 17 years old and that's it, that's the only thing that draws attention, otherwise if they choose him then that's a matter of taste within the Ballon d'Or organization, in fact for me that event doesn't have that much credibility, there he is in the club world they put Rodri in and they took him out immediately because he doesn't perform, so that no longer has credibility.
