Yamal hopes to remain a Barca legend, an honor to be compared to Messi

Yamal made his senior debut for Barcelona at the age of 15 in April 2023, before breaking into the national team at Euro 2024 in the middle of this year, becoming the youngest player in history to both play and score in a European tournament, helping the team to a fourth European championship.
