Barcelona captain Raphinha has pledged to prioritise his team's success over personal glory.
The Brazilian forward insisted that he will continue to put the interests of Barcelona first amid discussions about the 2027 Ballon d'Or.
Speaking about the prestigious individual award, the Brazilian winger emphasised his commitment to the Catalan club.
“I will do my best for the club, not for individual awards. I have always put the interests of the club I play for first," Raphinha said as quoted by Fabrizio Romano when asked about the possibility of him winning the next Ballon d’Or.
Raphinha is arguably the best player in Europe at the moment. He has scored 19 goals and provided three assists across all competitions.
The former Leeds United star will hope to lead Barcelona to victory when they face Atletico Madrid in LaLiga this weekend.
