Scouting Report & Player Insights

Lamine Yamal is Barcelona's generational right winger, an 18-year-old left-footer who receives wide, isolates his fullback, and either curls shots into the far corner or threads assists through congested boxes. His blend of close control, deception, and elite vision makes him the game's most dangerous one-v-one attacker, and he is already the focal point of both Barcelona's and Spain's attacks. He wears the number 10 shirt at Camp Nou and is on a long-term contract through 2031.

Youngest player ever to appear and score for Spain, and youngest to play at a European Championship, winning Euro 2024 at 16.

Youngest goalscorer in La Liga history when he scored for Barcelona in 2023 aged 16.

Won back-to-back Kopa Trophies and helped Barcelona to the 2024-25 La Liga and Copa del Rey double under Hansi Flick.

Scored a stunning semi-final goal against France at Euro 2024, aged 16, widely rated among the tournament's best.
