Barcelona midfielder Aitana Bonmatí has once again made history. She has won the 2025 Women’s Ballon d’Or, marking the third time in a row she has secured the honour.
The Spanish star has become widely recognised as one of the premier midfielders of her generation thanks to her outstanding performances for both club and country during the 2024-25 season.
For Barcelona, Bonmatí was instrumental in delivering a remarkable treble, with victories in Liga F, the UEFA Women’s Champions League, and the domestic cup. Her consistency and leadership in midfield were central to the club’s success.
Individually, she turned heads in Europe’s top competition with four goals and five assists during the Champions League run. Those contributions played a crucial role in helping Barcelona clinch European glory.
Winning the Ballon d’Or three years running confirms more than just Bonmatí’s peak form—it underscores her sustained excellence. As media and fans observe, she now serves not only as the engine in Barcelona’s midfield but also as a benchmark for what consistency at the highest level looks like in women’s football.
