Brazilian star Raphinha, a player for Spanish club Barcelona, expressed his feeling of being undervalued after missing out on individual awards, most notably the Ballon d'Or.
In press statements, Raphinha said: "I feel undervalued, and I believe I deserve much more. I had a fantastic season, and that's enough."
He continued: "Individual awards are not something I can control; it depends on the votes of the public and journalists, and it's not up to me."
It is worth noting that Raphinha finished fifth in the 2025 Ballon d'Or rankings, an award won by French international Ousmane Dembélé.
