Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal has added another individual honour to his collection after winning the La Liga Goal of the Month award for October.
According to a report by Barca Universal on Monday, November 9, 2026, the Spanish international received the recognition for his outstanding strike during Barcelona’s 5-2 victory over Real Betis last month, with the league officially announcing him as the winner on Monday.
Yamal delivered an impressive performance against Manuel Pellegrini’s side, contributing a goal and an assist as the Catalan giants secured a convincing victory.
His award-winning effort came just 10 minutes into the match and showcased his exceptional technical ability.
The 19-year-old collected possession on the right wing before using his close control and dribbling skills to get past an opposing defender. He then moved inside and produced a curling finish that beat the goalkeeper and found the back of the net.
The goal attracted widespread attention, with La Liga subsequently confirming Yamal as the winner through its official social media platforms.
The Barcelona youngster was nominated alongside Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe and Deportivo Alaves attacker Hugo Novoa but came out on top in the voting process.
However, Yamal missed out on another individual honour after failing to win the La Liga Player of the Month award for October. Despite being among the nominees, Mbappe eventually claimed the prize.
Nevertheless, the latest recognition further highlights Yamal’s impressive contributions to Barcelona this season.
The teenager has recorded 13 goals and 12 assists in 16 appearances across all competitions, giving him a total of 25 goal contributions during the campaign.
He has also registered 30 goal contributions in his last 18 appearances for club and country, underlining his growing influence in the final third.
Yamal has become an increasingly important figure in Hansi Flick’s Barcelona team, regularly making an impact through his goals, creativity, assists and ability to beat defenders.
At just 19, the winger continues to attract recognition for his performances, and winning the October Goal of the Month award represents another milestone in his rapidly developing career.
