Spain and Barcelona midfielder Aitana Bonmati has won the Women’s Ballon d’Or for the second year in a row. Last season, she helped Barcelona achieve an impressive quadruple by winning the Liga F, Champions League, Supercopa, and Copa de la Reina, scoring a personal record of 19 goals across all competitions.

Bonmati also led Spain to win the first Women’s Nations League title in February, scoring four goals, including one in the 2-0 final against France.

After receiving the award in Paris, Bonmati thanked everyone, saying, “I’m so grateful to receive this award for the second time. I’m lucky to have great teammates who help me keep improving.”

England’s Lauren James finished 13th in the voting, with teammates Lucy Bronze and Lauren Hemp ranking 20th and 28th. Emma Hayes won the Women’s Coach of the Year award after leading Chelsea to a fifth Women’s Super League title and then guiding the U.S. team to Olympic gold in Paris in 2024.
