Aitana Bonmati Clinches 2025 Women’s Ballon d’Or, Sets Historic Record

Her triumph at the 2025 Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris cements her status as the finest female footballer of the 2024–25 season.

Bonmatí delivered a phenomenal campaign, driving Barcelona’s success across competitions despite the club narrowly missing out on reclaiming the Champions League title.

From orchestrating the midfield to scoring crucial goals, providing assists, and shining at UEFA Women’s Euro 2025, her impact proved decisive and unmatched.
