Barcelona has been playing vibrant football this season, with Brazilian winger Raphinha playing a key role. However, the player himself remains focused on team success rather than personal accolades.
Details: Raphinha made it clear that his primary goal is to win trophies with Barcelona, and only after achieving that will he consider individual honors.
Quote: “I try to put that aside and focus on my career goals. If by the end of the season I’ve won all the titles, the chances for an individual award will be higher. But I’m not fixated on the Ballon d’Or. No distractions,” Raphinha stated.
The Brazilian has played 42 matches, netting 27 goals and providing 20 assists. Barcelona currently leads La Liga and is preparing for the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.
Reminder: Barcelona midfielder Pedri has previously said he would prefer winning the treble with the team over receiving the Ballon d’Or.
