Hansi Flick has been named La Liga Coach of the Season for the 2024/25 campaign, according to Marca. In just his first season in charge at FC Barcelona, Flick led the team to a sensational domestic treble, earning widespread praise for his energetic, attack-minded style. (FC Barcelona)
Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal has reportedly won the Alfredo Di Stéfano Award from Marca as the 2024/25 La Liga Player of the Season. (Tribuna) The teenage forward’s influence—and flair—were central to Barça’s campaign, and many see this as just the beginning of his rise.
Reality Check / Context:
- Yes, Flick did win La Liga’s top coach award. (laliga.com)
- But on Yamal: La Liga’s official “Player of the Season” (via LaLiga / EA SPORTS) was Raphinha, not Yamal. (Wikipedia)
- Yamal did win LaLiga EA SPORTS Best Under-23 Player for 2024/25, though. (laliga.com)
- The Alfredo Di Stéfano Trophy from Marca is a separate media award, not a league award — so this is about Marca’s recognition, not a league-wide prize. (World Soccer Talk)
👉 Bottom line: The news you heard is partially true — Flick’s award is official and well supported. As for Yamal, it looks like he won a Marca award, but not the official La Liga Player of the Season.
