Lamine Yamal: \u201cWhat I admire most about Messi\u2019s style is how effortlessly he does everything. He\u2019s a role model for everyone and someone every child looks up to.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cMessi is the greatest of all time, but I aim to create my own path. Comparisons don\u2019t always benefit me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cI\u2019m confident my teammate Pau Cubars\u00ed has what it takes to win the 2025 Golden Boy, even as a defender. He\u2019s already one of the top 5 defenders in Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cDavid Raum has been the toughest opponent I\u2019ve faced. In the Euros against Germany, he was difficult to get past. A solid defender.\u201d<\/p>\n
Your message for kids who want to follow in my footsteps?<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cThey should work hard, never give up, and keep pushing to achieve their dreams. Stay positive and enjoy the game because football is just that\u2014a game. But as the saying goes, \u2018He who stops, loses.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cBefore I turn 21, I want to win the World Cup, the Champions League, and two La Liga titles.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cIf I win the Champions League with Barcelona, it will boost my chances of winning individual awards, like the Ballon d\u2019Or.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cNo one wins individual awards if the team doesn\u2019t perform well, and vice versa. If the team succeeds, I\u2019ll likely be nominated for individual honors. It all goes hand in hand.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cWinning the Golden Boy is an amazing feeling. It\u2019s the first individual recognition of my career. Every young player dreams of winning it, and I couldn\u2019t have done it without my teammates.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cThe Bar\u00e7a staff told me I had won the Golden Boy before lunch. I was happy, but not surprised. The media had been saying I was the favorite for a while.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cBefore I think about winning the Ballon d\u2019Or, I want to win a Champions League and a World Cup.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lamine Yamal: \u201cI give the awards I win to my parents as a gift to thank them for their constant support.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
