‘He has a huge future’ – Lionel Messi goes crazy for Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal

Lionel Messi has made his admiration for Lamine Yamal clear after watching the Spain and Barcelona wonderkid star.

Yamal has faced plenty of comparisons to Messi throughout his career, and the GOAT thinks Barca’s latest superstar is the real deal.

“There is a generation of very good young footballers who still have many years ahead of them,” he said at an Adidas event in Germany.

“But if I had to choose someone, given his age and his future, I heard they chose Lamin Yamal and there’s no doubt about that for me too. I agree.

“It depends on him and a lot of things because that’s the way football is, but he is a player of the present and he has a big future.”

Barcelona’s teenage star has been posting some great performances and numbers this season. He already has six goals and 11 assists in 20 appearances in all competitions for Hansi Flick.
