Lamine Yamal was called to be the new Lionel Messi at FC Barcelona, since, barely 16 years old, the young Catalan is already a star. Now, the young man is viral for his last words about his idol, where instead of saying Messi, he said something surprising.

Lamine Yamal gave an interview with Fake Gods and there he confessed who is the footballer who dazzles him and who has marked him at the beginning of his career. In this regard, the forward said: “The one I have put the most in videos is Neymar.” In this way, Yamal revealed that his great idol is the Brazilian footballer.

Neymar is injured and we will have to wait until the middle of next year to see him on the pitch captivating everyone with his dribbles and his skills. Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal continues to shine at FC Barcelona and is adding more and more playing minutes to the squad, despite his young age.

What Xavi says on Yamal:

"Lamine is curious because three weeks ago you told me that I didn't dare put him in and now you tell me that he should rest. We will take care of him, pamper him and treat him like one of our own, even though he is 16 years old. We will work with He and Bojan's role will be important. He will have first-team dynamics. We will take care of him and he can continue to be very important. He has head, personality and talent."
