Barcelona Star Lamine Yamal Targets Legend Status at the Club
Lamine Yamal, the 17-year-old Spanish sensation, is setting his sights on becoming a legend at Barcelona after bursting onto the scene as a teenager. In an interview with Spanish private television Antena 3’s hit show ‘El Hormiguero’, Yamal revealed his ambition to make a lasting impact at Camp Nou.
The winger made his Barcelona debut at 15 and has since become a key player for the club, earning comparisons with legendary La Masia graduate Lionel Messi. However, Yamal is keen to establish his own identity and prove himself as a world-class player in his own right.
"I hope I never leave (Barcelona), I want to be a legend at Barca," Yamal said confidently, showing his commitment to the club. "To be compared to the best in history is incredible and that means you’re doing something right, but I try to be me and be remembered for myself."
With his impressive performances for Barcelona and Spain, including becoming the youngest ever footballer to play and score in the European Championship’s history, Yamal’s stocks are soaring. But despite the fame and accolades, he remains humble, crediting the club’s youth academy for his rapid development.
"From a young age, at clubs like Barca they prepare you as psychologists. They have been preparing me since I was a child," Yamal revealed. "I’m looking forward to the future, and it will be very difficult to get to that (Messi’s career achievement), so I hope I will be remembered for being Lamine Yamal."
At just 17, Yamal has already experienced an incredible amount of success, and his future looks brighter than ever. But his ambition to become a legend at Barcelona is what truly sets him apart from the rest.
