What you didn't know about this guy yet, we'll tell you right now!
Yamal's records at Euro 2024
Two matches were enough for Lamine Yamal to pull the strings at the Euro 2024! In Spain's opening two games at the European Championship against Croatia and Italy, Furia Roja’s winger delivered 1 assist, completed 7 dribbles, gave 4 key passes, created 4 chances and won 10 duels!
Yamal has already humiliated the second most expensive defender in the world, Croatian Josko Gvardiol, and Italian Federico Dimarco, who was a finalist in the 2022/23 Champions League as part of Inter Milan!
Besides, at the age of 16 years and 339 days, Lamine became the youngest player to have ever featured at a UEFA Euro finals and the youngest assistant! Due to having a similar style of play, position, and number 19 shirt in the national team, he is already being called "the next Lionel Messi"!
The fact that this guy is doing all this at 16 years old is absolutely insane! Even King Felipe VI of Spain cannot believe that Yamal plays so maturely at his age!
- How old are you?
- 16 years old
- 16 years old? 🤦♂️
The only thing Yamal hasn't done yet at the Euros is score a goal, but everyone has already seen his celebration for Barcelona and wondered what he shows with his fingers? Okay, here is the answer!
Yamal's celebration
Every time Lamine Yamal scores, he shows the number 304. What does it mean? The matter is that the talented player was born in the disadvantaged immigrant neighbourhood of Rocafonda in the Catalan municipality of Mataro.
Rocafonda is home to many people of different nationalities, and that's why this place is called a "multicultural dump", where a lot of xenophobia cases occur.
That said, Yamal still respects his origins and every time he celebrates a scored goal, he shows the last three digits of the Rocafonda postal code - 304!
And although the conditions in which Lamine lived were far from luxurious, he still devotes a lot of time to his education and this serves as a unique example of how one can continue studying at school even during the Euro campaign!
Yamal bought houses for his grandmother and parents
Recently, Lamin Yamal used his salary in Barcelona to buy houses for his grandmother and parents, the Catalan edition of Sport reports. However, there is also other information that our hero signed a 10-year contract with Adidas worth 32 million euros! And that Lamin used this money to thank his family for their support and faith!
In this way, the guy thanks those who supported him on his way from living in a poor and dangerous Catalan neighborhood to becoming one of the greatest young football talents!
Yamal also devotes a lot of time to education and is a unique example of how you can study at school even during the Euro!
Yamal does homework between Euro matches
At some point in this year’s Euro, Lamine Yamal was caught between making football history and doing homework! The teen is currently finishing the last year of Spain's compulsory secondary education and he even brought his homework with him to the European Championship! Between training sessions and matches, La Roja winger is joining his web classes and continuing to study.
"I brought my homework here because I'm in the 4th year of ESO. I have online classes too and those are going fine. I hope the teacher doesn't get mad at me.
I guess my teachers will send me notes online because it depends on how far we go in the Euros, which I hope very.
But if we get to the finals, I won't be able to attend school. I hope my teachers will still be happy and approve of me," shares Yamal.
What a guy! And by the way, Spanish supporters are ready to help him! One of them wants to help Lamine with his math exam in exchange for his game jersey! Seems like not a bad deal actually!
However, having fallen in love with Yamal so quickly, the Spain squad fans did not notice the controversial gesture made by the stellar kid two years ago…
Yamal celebrated Spain's knockout from the 2022 World Cup
Yamal was born in Spain, but his father is Moroccan, so this connection made the boy feel more Moroccan than Spanish.
At least that's what it seems like after watching a video from two years ago, in which Lamine was laughing and celebrating Spain's loss to Morocco at the last 16 stage of the World Cup in Qatar! Nowadays, Furia Roja's fan base would not forgive him for that!
But in the end, it was the Spaniards who got the last laugh. You see, Morocco's representatives have long been competing with the Spaniards to secure Yamal’s services, repeatedly persuading the player to make a choice in their favor. They even wanted to turn Lamine into their country's football icon amid their 2030 World Cup bid.

This video aged like gold.

Today he did score against France, so it is no longer “the only thing he did not do in the Euros”

The teacher won't get mad at you kid. Just score a few goals for Spain and your problem is solved. By the way, if it is in Africa the teacher will even do your assignment
-
The future is between Lamine and Musiala, they are pure talent. Just imagine Yamal on the right and Musiala in the left in Barca and new camp nou, it will be magical.
