Aitana Bonmatí has been nominated for the Laureus 2025 World Sportswoman of the Year Awards. The Spanish national team midfielder is in the running for an award she also won last year. On this occasion, her merits are almost endless. The Catalan player has won every possible trophy with FC Barcelona (La Liga, Champions League, Copa de la Reina and Spanish Super Cup) and as if that were not enough, she has won the UEFA Women's Nations League with the Spanish national team. In addition, Aitana played her first Olympic Games with Spain. For all these reasons, by demonstrating her quality on the pitch in every game, she is a serious contender for the award.

 

Lamine Yamal, Laureus World Breakthrough of the Year Award

If the Spanish Men's National Team are among the nominees for the Laureus Awards after winning the European Championships, there is a special mention for Lamine Yamal. The FC Barcelona player, who was among the members of the national team that won the continental championships, is among the nominees for best breakthrough sportsman. The winger is one of the most promising sportsmen on the planet and dazzles us with passes, dribbles and impossible goals every time he steps on the pitch, making his nomination more than deserved. The winners will be announced in April.
