Lamine Yamal (born July 13, 2007) is a Spanish football prodigy who plays as a winger for FC Barcelona and the Spain national team, making history as one of the youngest stars ever. Debuting for Barça at 15 years old (April 2023), his explosive dribbling, vision, and maturity defy his age, earning comparisons to Lionel Messi. In 2024, he became the youngest scorer for Spain (16) and the youngest to play in a Euro or Champions League knockout stage. A product of La Masia, his left-footed magic and composure under pressure have fans calling him the "next big thing."
