The young striker kept a low profile during the draw against Real Mallorca on Tuesday evening. After the game, his coach sought to temper expectations for him. “He is so young and we have to take care of him. He has a lot of maturity. It can help us a lot, but we must be careful. He is happy with his contribution.”

“He has integrated very well,” added Xavi of the Spanish neo-international. He understands Rafa and Fermín very well. I know he can bring us something and that he is different. This is what we want. He generates things for us, but we must take care of him. He’s too young to be burned.”

Lamine Yamal has played 9 matches with the Barça first team since making his debut last spring. He was started three times. He has already delivered an assist, but he is still looking for his first goal under the Blaugrana tunic.
