Lamine Yamal was previously popular primarily in Spain. He is one of Robert Lewandowski's teammates at FC Barcelona, and in club football, he has showcased his talents in La Liga and European competitions.
Debuting in a major football tournament brought Lamine Yamal additional recognition, especially because he is a leading player in Euro 2024.
Fans are wondering what the future holds for the very talented teenager. Perhaps he will take the number one spot in world football. For decades, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were at the top.
