Pau Cubarsi will miss the 2026 Ballon d’Or ceremony in London, with the Barcelona defender choosing to remain at home and recover after a demanding run of matches.
The 19-year-old is among the nominees for the Kopa Trophy, recognising the best young talent in football, while he is also nominated for the top prize.
But, according to Mundo Deportivo, he has decided that rest is more important than attending tonight’s gala. The decision comes after Barcelona’s 2-1 defeat to Real Madrid in El Clasico on Sunday.
