Launched among professionals in 2023 under the colors of FC Barcelona, ​​at just 15 years old, Lamine Yamal continues to splash the lawns of Europe from his talent. The 17 -year -old right winger, often rented for his precocity, was recently compared to another prodigy from the Masia: Bojan Krkic.
Former legend of Arsenal and ex-attacker of Barça, Thierry Henry established a parallel between the hatching of the young European champion 2024 and that of the former Spanish attacker. The latter had made his debut at the age of 17, becoming the youngest player of the club since the Second World War, as well as his youngest scorer the following month. But under the weight of a stifling media pressure, the native of Lilyola never managed to fully win at Barça.
“They forget that you are a kid”
“I saw someone arrive like that: Bojan Krkic. I do not know if you remember him, but I invite you to watch his documentary and what can happen to you when you are young and you do not know how to manage everything that happens to you so quickly ”, explained the 1998 world champion for CBS Sports.
“This is something that people don't understand, and don't want to understand sometimes sometimes. You play your matches and they forget that you are a kid who goes from unknown to everyone, who also thinks that you are very good ”continued the child of the Ulis.
