It looks like an obligatory passage. When a new recruit arrives at FC Barcelona, it does not take long before it gives its first interview to one of the big names in the Spanish press to evoke its arrival in Catalonia, its new teammates … and of course, the name of Lamine Yamal often returns in these conversations. Marcus Rashford, loaned by Manchester United to Barça, is no exception. The English striker spoke on the 18 -year -old Spanish prodigy, greeting his great maturity. “He is a very talented player, a high -level player. What is most surprising is his maturity for his age. His way of thinking and playing. He is very early on his age. It's exciting to play with him and with others too. I adapt to the change of environment, rhythm and football, and the best place to do it is on the field. I will make mistakes, but I will also learn a lot and I will improve myself. The quality of the players helps a lot and, as I have already said, for me, the field is the easiest place to learn ”he said in the columns of Sport.
Then asked about the possibility that Lamine Yamal one day won the Ballon d'Or, Rashford has no doubt. “Yes of course. If he does not win this year, he will win it in the future. Dembélé, Raphina, they all deserve it. It is difficult to choose one, but they are all ripe and have made a fantastic season. Lamine is so young that he will certainly win it ”he assured, before saying more about the personality of the number 10 Blaugrana in the locker room: “As a person, he is an 18 -year -old boy, always funny, who laughs and jokes with others. It is stimulating to be in a cloakroom with so many young people. It reminds me when I was his age … And yes, he is the most talented player with whom I played for his age. I have never played or seen anyone having as much impact on the game as it is. Maybe Ronaldo (Nazário), El Fenómeno. Having such an influence on the ground at such a young age and in such a constant way is incredible. He has a long career in front of him, and I hope he will maintain his level, even that he will improve. ”
