Since the start of the Euro, young Lamine Yamal has impressed observers from all four corners of the planet. At just 16 years old, the winger is one of the driving forces of La Roja, who will meet Germany this Friday.
On Thursday, the father of the young prodigy published a photo with a very special meaning. We see him as a baby in his bath alongside Lionel Messi, who played for a long time in Yamal’s training club – it should be remembered – FC Barcelona.
“The beginning of two legends,” he wrote in the caption of this publication that has gone viral. A photo with strong symbolism, as the careers of the two players are so similar so far. Will Yamal become the worthy successor to Leo Messi at FC Barcelona? Time will tell.
