Lamine Yamal's rapid and prominent rise in the world of football is a sight to behold, as for the first time in many years (or say since the glimpse of Neymar Jr. at FC Barcelona), fans do have a talent at their disposal who might not be the second Neymar, or second Messi, but... the very first version of himself.


At 17 years of age, the Spanish winger is already the youngest ever player to do the following:



  • Score or assist in a major tournament final.

  • To win a major tournament final.

  • To appear in a major tournament final.


Lamine Yamal is also the youngest player in the history of FC Barcelona to make 50 appearances and is on course to break a series of records this season. Currently, the dazzling dribbler has 5 goals and 9 assists to his name within the league itself, and needs one more assist to become the youngest ever player to record 10+ assists in a single La Liga season.


The 'La Masia' product is the reigning winner of the Kopa Trophy and also featured in the FIFPro Wolrd XI, and concluded his year with the 'Emerging Player' award at the Globe Soccer Awards.
