3 things to know about Yamine Lamal, Barcelona’s wonderkid dubbed the ‘Next Messi’

1. Lamine Yamal is Spanish-born but of African descent

Lamine Yamal Nasraoui Ebana was born in Mataró, Spain on July 13, 2007, to a Moroccan father and an Equatorial Guinean mother.

However, he spent most of his youth in Barcelona.

2. Lamine Yamal caught Xavi’s eye in 2022

Growing through the youth ranks of La Masia, Yamal was soon viewed as one of the academy’s best prospects.

Whilst added to the Juvenil A team already above his age grade for the 2022–23 season, Yamal was selected by Xavi to train with the first team along for the first time in early September 2022, alongside another youngster.

He appeared to be one of the academy members to most impress the Barcelona head coach and Blaugrana legend.

3. Lamine Yamal started off as a striker in his youth

Yamal is primarily a left-footed right-winger, although he spent his youth as a striker in seven-a-side teams before transitioning to a wider role later on.

Yamal is comfortable anywhere across the forward line but excels on the right flank, allowing him to maximize his dribbling skills and talents.

As a matter of fact, scouts rate Yamal as the best dribbler in the Barcelona academy across all the age groups.

Who is Barcelona’s 15-year-old Lamine Yamal?

Yamal plays under Oscar Lopez’s orders with the Juvenil A team and will take part in the UEFA Youth League despite still being just 15. He is an underage international with Spain too.

His dribbling is arguably his most impressive attribute, though he is also clinical in front of goal. He is able to play on the right or as the central forward, as well as behind the striker.

Since he was 12 years old, Lamine Yamal has been demanding attention. He was born on July 13, 2007, and is of Moroccan and Equatorial Guinean descent. Due to his style of play, he’s been compared with Lionel Messi at La Masia.

LaLiga’s official Twitter account posted a video of his performances at LaLiga Promises in 2019 and labelled him “a mini Leo Messi”. No pressure, then.

Yamal made the headlines this weekend in Barcelona’s 4-0 win against Real Betis as he became the youngest Barcelona player to play in LaLiga in the 21st century.
