Lamine Yamal Told He Can Reach Lionel Messi’s Level as Girona Boss Michel Praises Barcelona’s ‘Difference-Maker’
Barcelona’s young star Lamine Yamal has been hailed as a “difference-maker” and compared to Lionel Messi after his remarkable performance in Barca’s 4-1 victory over Girona. The 17-year-old scored twice to help Barcelona maintain their four-point lead at the top of La Liga.
After the match, Girona boss Michel expressed his admiration for Yamal, stating that the youngster has the potential to reach Messi’s level one day.
What Michel Said
“Lamine is a difference-maker. For me, he is already one of the best players in the world at 17 years of age,” Michel told reporters. “It is difficult to imagine that after Messi, another like him would come along, but I hope that Lamine keeps improving because he’s a player who can reach that level.”
