In an interview given to Mundo Deportivogoalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny spoke about the young nugget of FC Barcelona, Lamine Yamal: “I think Lamine is at a point in his career where he needs to have fun, and that’s clearly the most important thing. I was 18 at one point, and I remember that what you think at 18 is completely different from what you think when you're over 30, for example. And with his qualities, his talent, if he doesn't lose his passion for the game and remains professional, it's obvious. He will experience immense success, because nothing stops him from being the best player in the world. He just has to stay focused, calm and keep that passion. »
The Polish goalkeeper of Barça then continued about his behavior, which has sometimes caused controversy in the football world: “I therefore have no advice to give him for the moment, because I see no harm in it. Yes, he is a very open person and he likes to enjoy life. But we all do it, and we've all turned 18 at some point. And being 18 also means making mistakes, you have to make them and learn from them. We can't have someone behind us telling us all the time what to do and what not to do. You have to live your life. We are human beings, not just footballers, so I don't have to worry. He just has to keep playing the way he does. » Strong words for the nugget of La Roja, who also shows the good atmosphere within the Catalan locker room.
