The Making of a Star: Lamine Yamal’s Dad Predicts a Bright Future
As Lamine Yamal prepares to face England in the Euro 2024 final, his dad, Mounir Nasraoui, has revealed that he always knew his son would be a star. And who can blame him? Yamal’s rapid rise to fame has been nothing short of astonishing.
The 18-year-old Barcelona prodigy has broken into the first team for both club and country, playing a crucial role in Spain’s Euro 2024 campaign despite his tender years. But according to his dad, this was always the plan.
"I got over what happened to my son when he was born," Nasraoui told Mundo Deportivo. "I knew he was going to be a star. Any father knows this and any father wants their son to be the best."
Yamal’s talent was evident from a young age, and his dad has shared some adorable photos of the young star alongside none other than Lionel Messi. Nasraoui joked that maybe Yamal blessed Messi with good luck, but in all seriousness, the two are clearly close.
For Nasraoui, Messi is an inspiration, not just for his incredible football skills but for his values and character. "He is the best in everything, not only in football, in love, in person and in everything," he said. "He is a child and has a blessing from God, which is very important and must be valued."
As Spain takes on England in the final on Sunday, Yamal will be hoping to make more history and become the youngest player to win the tournament. With his dad’s blessing and Messi’s guidance, anything is possible.
