On July 13, Spanish newspaper Marca reported that Spanish youngster Yamal spoke about his predecessor, Argentine star Lionel Messi. Yamal was very humble, saying that he might never reach Messi’s level.
Yamal’s outstanding performance led Spain to the final, and he is writing his own history at an incredible speed. Although his career is still in its infancy, the road ahead is long and challenging, but the 16-year-old has already shown extraordinary talent, reminiscent of another legendary star – Messi.
Reporter: Many people compare you to Lionel Messi, what do you think?
Yamal said: “I’m trying to be myself, I want everyone to know me, to remember me. Because I’m Yamal, so remember my name. I think comparing me to the best player in history makes no sense. Because I can never reach his level, I try to be myself, that’s enough.”
