Will Lamine Yamal be the best Euro 2024 player?
Lamine Yamal has set several records at this European Championship.

With his goal in the semi-final against France, he also became the youngest European Championship goalscorer in the history of the EURO at the age of 16 years and 362 days.
He has also provided three assists in the tournament so far.
Logically, Lamine Yamal is one of the “EURO 2024 Best Player” favorites. Yamal is right at the top of the betting odds for the best player at Euro 2024.
Even if Spain loses the final, the super teenager could still be awarded the “Golden Ball”. Well deserved, given his European Championship records
EM 2024 Best Player: The chances of the other Spaniards
In addition to Lamine Yamal, other Spaniards are also among the candidates for the “Best Player” award.
One of them is Nico Williams, Yamal’s best buddy on the right wing. The other is Dani Olmo, who shone as a joker during the tournament and scored two goals. Olmo therefore still has a chance of becoming top scorer at Euro 2024.
And finally, there is also Rodri among the favorites for the best Euro 2024 player.
The pacemaker of the Spanish team may be more inconspicuous than Yamal and Olmo, but he is the heart and brain of the team. In addition to his passing ability, he can also score goals
Golden Ball 2024 for Bellingham or Kane?
The betting odds and predictions for the “Best Euro 2024 Player” trophy also include a number of English players. Although the England team did not or only rarely impress during the tournament, a few players were still mainly responsible for the team reaching the final.
Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane, for example, scored the goals in the 2-1 nail-biting win over Slovakia in the round of 16 to prevent an early exit.
Kane also scored in the semi-final against the Netherlands, setting a new European Championship record in the process: He has scored a total of 6 times in a knockout match at a EURO.
