Andrés Iniesta addressed FC Barcelona’s complicated start to the season, marked by the defeat in the Clasico, a five-point deficit on the leader and several key players injured or affected, in an interview with Movistar. If the ex-Spain international did not seem particularly worried by the current situation of the team, he also took the opportunity to support Lamine Yamal, criticized in recent weeks for his behavior off the field.
“It’s a life process. He is 18 years old, he must continue to improve and learn. From there it will continue to grow. When you’re in the spotlight so much, everything, every detail… you always tend to criticize. It’s something very beautiful and very special to see Lamine every week and see what he accomplishes”he declared. Comments which corroborate the statements of Alejandro Baldé about his teammate.
