Editor's Take:
Lamine Yamal arrived in elite football so young that he had to do schoolwork during major tournaments. A product of Barcelona's famous academy, he plays on the right wing. He has close control, sharp turns and a brave left foot. At Euro 2024 he became the tournament's youngest goalscorer and helped Spain lift the trophy. Comparisons with Lionel Messi began almost at once. Barcelona fans hope he can lead a new golden era.
