In recent times, Yamal has received many comparisons between him and Messi. Personally, the striker born in 2007 is very happy about this but he also affirmed that he wants to go on his own path.
C. Ronaldo also shared his thoughts about Yamal on Rio Ferdinand’s Youtube channel. The Portuguese striker said: “Yamal has great potential and great talent. However, he needs luck because he is very young. I hope Yamal does not have any physical problems.
Yamal has just participated in a big tournament that helped him a lot (Euro 2024). It is really good that Yamal plays for the Spanish national team. I think the potential for this young talent is huge.
Let’s see what happens on his path. I believe Yamal can become one of the best players of his generation.”
Yamal debuted for Barcelona at the age of 15. He holds a number of records at both the club and international level. At the age of 16, Yamal became a mainstay of Barcelona and the Spanish national team. This season, Yamal has been shining brighter and brighter for Los Blaugrana. After 8 appearances, he has had a hand in 8 goals (scoring 4 goals, assisting 4) for the Catalan club.
Yamal is further along than Messi and C. Ronaldo at the age of 17. At the same age as Yamal, C. Ronaldo is just a promising young talent of Sporting Lisbon, while Messi has not been promoted to the first team of Barcelona. However, the important thing is the development in the long run. Both Messi and CR7 have made tireless efforts over the past 20 years to become the greatest stars in football history.
Over the years, many outstanding talents have “died young” because they could not stand the heat. in the past, hoping that he can develop in the right direction.
