Lamine Yamal may have fallen short in the Champions League and Nations League, but that will only motivate the Barcelona and Spain star to get better.

The Nations League final wasn’t Lamine Yamal’s finest hour considering the ridiculous standards that he’d set himself over the course of the 2024/25 season. However, it’s not the time or the place to be overly critical of this soon to be 18-year-old who is redefining the footballing paradigm and, what’s more, doing it with ease.

Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal has become the world’s most valuable footballer at €200 million, surpassing legends Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
