Barcelona is a club full of talent, and has two 17-year-old superstars: Yamal and Kubasi. Yamal is already a superstar, and Kubasi is also on the road to superstardom. On November 1, Kubasi was interviewed by RAC1 and talked about the Ballon d’Or, Barcelona, and personal learning.
Like Yamal, Kubasi was born in 2007. In the 2023-24 season, Kubasi emerged and quickly became the main central defender of Barcelona. After Flick became the head coach of Barcelona, he continued to trust Kubasi. Today, Kubasi’s transfer valuation is as high as 40 million euros, and his future is limitless.
In addition to being a Barcelona star, Kubasi is also a high school student. In an interview with RAC1, Kubasi talked about his study life.
“I am a sophomore in high school. Every morning, I attend training at Barcelona. At 3 pm, I go to learn cultural knowledge. The teacher comes from León XIII to the La Masia Youth Training Camp to teach us.”

Kubasi has to study for 5 hours every day, which is a big challenge for the young Barcelona star. Yamal, also 17 years old, is currently a freshman in high school, one grade lower than Kubasi.
At the 2024 Ballon d’Or ceremony, Kubasi went to Paris to attend and witnessed the coronation of his national team teammate Rodri. In the selection of the Copa Award, Kubasi ranked fifth. Regarding the Ballon d’Or ceremony, Kubasi said: “It is a great reward to be in the top 10 or top 20. It is very important for players to be there. Olmo and I went to the scene and didn’t say what we wanted to win. I was not surprised that Vinicius didn’t win the award. He and Rodry were in fierce competition.
