Joan Garcia won the Zamora trophy in his first season with Barcelona, demonstrating his quality while playing with the team’s high defensive line. Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal finished as the top Spanish scorers in La Liga and were crowned for the Zarra trophy after the final whistle. Kylian Mbappe led the league overall with 25 goals for Real Madrid, followed by Vedat Muriqi with 23 and Ante Budimir with 17. Because the Zarra trophy is for Spanish players, the main contenders were Yamal and Torres, tied on 16 goals. Mikel Oyarzabal had 15, while Toni Martinez and Borja Iglesias had 14 each. Yamal missed the team’s final games, but Torres failed to take sole possession of the award, assisting Lewandowski against Valencia without scoring, leaving him sharing it with Yamal.
"With Lamine Yamal ruled out of the team's final games of the season including El Clasico, Torres had multiple chances to get ahead of the Spanish winger as the sole winner of the Zarra trophy. In fact, he started last night's clash on level terms with Yamal and even a single goal last night would have seen him move clear and lay hands as the sole winner. Torres, however, could not capitalise on his chances against Valencia. He did assist Robert Lewandowski's goal, but his inability to score means he now shares the award with his teammate."
