While his attacking display and two-goal performance against Rayo Vallecano grabbed the headlines, his numbers in another area of the game are arguably even more significant.<\/p>\n<p>The young Spanish star currently leads La Liga for chances created, providing another indication of his growing influence within Hansi Flick\u2019s system and the role he is beginning to play in creating danger before getting anywhere near the goal himself.<\/p>\n<h2>Lamine Yamal leads La Liga<\/h2>\n<p>According to a statistic shared by Squawka, Lamine Yamal has created 13 chances across the first three gameweeks of La Liga, making him the league\u2019s leading chance creator during that period.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Lamine Yamal has created more chances than any other player in La Liga across the first three gameweeks this season: 13.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The figure underlines the creative responsibility Yamal has taken on at Barcelona. He is no longer simply relying on getting into the box and looking for goals; he has become a consistent source of chances for his teammates.<\/p>\n<p>From the right flank in particular, Yamal can transform an attack in an instant, whether by cutting inside, delivering crosses or threading passes behind the defensive line.<\/p>\n<p>The statistic becomes even more impressive considering that the teenager was still being eased back into full fitness at the beginning of the season after returning late to pre-season following the World Cup.<\/p>\n<h2>The numbers answer the questions<\/h2>\n<p>Yamal\u2019s strong start has also come at a time when there had been considerable discussion surrounding his situation at Barcelona, including suggestions that he was unhappy at the beginning of the campaign.<\/p>\n<p>However, the player himself addressed those claims after the victory over Rayo Vallecano, insisting that he was happy at the club.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, his performances have provided the strongest possible response.<\/p>\n<p>Yamal has not only moved to the top of the La Liga chance-creation charts, but also scored twice in Barcelona\u2019s latest victory over Rayo Vallecano, combining his creative influence with a direct threat in front of goal.<\/p>\n<p>That is exactly what gives Barcelona another reason for optimism.<\/p>\n<p>With a player capable of creating chances at this rate while also possessing the ability to score himself, opponents face an increasingly difficult task when trying to contain his side of the pitch.<\/p>\n<p>For Hansi Flick, having Yamal operating at this level is the best possible news ahead of a season in which Barcelona have major ambitions both domestically and in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>The team have made a perfect start to the campaign and are chasing a third consecutive La Liga title, while the Champions League remains the club\u2019s biggest ambition.<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of those ambitions stands Lamine Yamal.<\/p>\n<p>A player who was still being described as an exceptional talent not long ago is gradually becoming one of Barcelona\u2019s most important attacking weapons.<\/p>\n<p>And as the numbers continue to rise, the question is no longer whether Yamal can make a difference, but just how influential he can become over an entire season.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Lamine Yamal has created more chances than any other player in LaLiga across the first three gameweeks this season (13). \ud83d\udd11 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sSXBQXiYmM\">pic.twitter.com\/sSXBQXiYmM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Squawka (@Squawka) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Squawka\/status\/2095084855797109105?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 2, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lamine Yamal leads La Liga with an astonishing number as Barcelona star emerges as the league\u2019s top chance creator Lamine Yamal has needed very little time to make his mark on the new season with Barcelona.
