Barcelona have finally made a choice on Dembelé's replacement.

After Ousmane Dembelé's departure to PSG, FC Barcelona has a huge reason to be excited and it's called Lamine Yamal. The youth squad player played some minutes in the Joan Gamper Trophy, in the second half, and thanks to him, Barcelona won 4-2 against Spurs.

Everything started in a great way with Robert Lewandowski's goal just three minutes into the game, but Tottenham did not give up easily. In the first half, Skipp scored two goals and turned the score around, putting it Barcelona 1-2 Tottenham.

Later in the match, FC Barcelona turned it around due to the changes of Xavi Hernández. Yamal Lamine was the great star of the night. The 16-year-old youth player assisted Ferrán Torres for the 2-2 draw and then generated the play for Ansu Fati and Abde's goal, to claim the 4-2 victory.

La Liga starts soon

The last test for FC Barcelona before the start of the season was the Joan Gamper, and now everything points to what will be their debut in La Liga. The first stop will be the duel against Getafe and Xavi Hernández awaits the registration of the rest of the players to be able to complete his team thinking of playing a good role in the triple competition.
