Santos forward Neymar has publicly backed Barcelona starlet Lamine Yamal to win the upcoming Ballon d'Or. The Brazilian superstar took to social media to proclaim that the teenager is currently the finest footballer on the planet.
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick labeled Lamine Yamal a "special player" while warning his squad not to look past Real Betis. Despite high-profile fixtures against PSG and Real Madrid on the horizon, Flick demanded total focus in Seville.
The Spanish football federation (RFEF) has confirmed it will escalate its legal battle to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) following a FIFA ruling. The governing body recently dismissed an appeal against sanctions imposed for Islamophobic chanting during an international friendly earlier this year.
Barcelona star Rodri has jokingly downplayed Lamine Yamal’s latest piece of Champions League magic, suggesting that the teenager’s stunning skill move was more down to luck than design. The Spanish midfielder was speaking after the Catalan giants secured a comprehensive 4-1 victory away at Galatasaray to continue their perfect start to the campaign.
