BarcelonaLamine Yamal does not only transcend because of his goals and his football. After opening the scoring in the (2-3) victory of the Spanish national team at Wembley against England in a duel corresponding to the Nations League, the Blaugrana winger made the son of a fellow professional happy.
Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice, who did not play any minutes because he is injured, asked his compatriot Anthony Gordon if he could ask Lamine Yamal, with whom they share a dressing room at Barça since this season, if the Catalan star could take a photograph with his son. This happened after the match, in the tunnel of the dressing rooms.
Lamine Yamal agreed and, pizza in hand (it was at the Spanish footballers' dinner, who after the match at Wembley went straight to the airport to fly to Madrid), went to meet Rice and his son. After exchanging a few words, the Barcelona and Spanish national team star did not hesitate to make this simple gesture.
Rice, for his part, appreciated it and said to the footballer from Rocafonda: "For me, you are the best". The praise, apart from the gratitude shown by the Arsenal and England midfielder, points in the direction of the next Ballon d'Or. The award, which has Lamine Yamal as one of the main candidates to win it, along with the Real Madrid player Kylian Mbappé and the English Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane, will be presented on October 26th.
