Since making his breakthrough with FC Barcelona’s first team, young star Lamine Yamal has found himself the subject of comparisons to the legendary <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>. In addition to his exceptional talent and dribbling skills, young Spanish sensation has now added another point of similarity to his growing list with La Pulga. The rising star has recently achieved another asterisk that further draws parallels to the Argentine icon’s illustrious career.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">FC Barcelona</a> has officially announced that Lamine Yamal will wear the number 19 jersey for the 2024-25 season. This is the same number worn by Lionel Messi during his formative years at the club from 2005 to 2008, adding another layer of connection between the young talent and the Argentine legend.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a>, who turned 17 on July 13th, last year wore the number 27, making 50 appearances and scoring 7 goals, only one game behind German midfielder Ilkay Gündogan. 



As Ansu Fati reclaims his place in the FC Barcelona first team, Yamal has chosen to wear the number 19 jersey instead of the number 10, which was previously worn by Fati before his loan spell in the Premier League with Brighton.

<h2>A jersey number that has already brought Yamal joy</h2>



Last weekend, Spain clinched the Euro 2024 championship with a thrilling victory over England in the final. Lamine Yamal played a pivotal role in the match, starting as a key player for coach Luis de la Fuente’s squad and standing out throughout the tournament.



A fun fact is that the FC Barcelona star wore the number 19 on his jersey during the tournament, a number he will also don for Barcelona starting this season. Now, the question is whether he can lead his club to championship glory as well.

Sunday was a special day both for Lamine Yamal and Lionel Messi. While the former celebrated the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">UEFA Euro 2024</a> title with Spain, the latter added the 2024 Copa America to his trophy cabinet with Argentina.



The connection between these stars has been huge since the Spanish sensation started to make a name for himself at Barcelona, where <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Messi</a> left an indelible mark between 2005 and 2021.



With <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Yamal</a> looking like the club’s best prospect since Leo, the comparisons between them have been inevitable, and they only increased this summer. Adidas even came up with a creative post to honor both players, and the 17-year-old embraced it by sharing the image on Instagram stories.



“The GOAT and The Kid,” was the German brand’s message after the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America</a>, without needing to clarify who it was referring to. Yamal definitely looks up to Messi, and even though he’s still very young, he already looks in pace to following in Leo’s footsteps. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="488" height="743" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240715_BUS_146035_image-13_da4da505.webp&amp;width=488&amp;height=743" alt="" class="wp-image-146036" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/image-13.png 488w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/image-13-197x300.png 197w" sizes="(max-width: 488px) 100vw, 488px"></figure></figure>



Even though he admires Messi, Yamal told Gerard Romero no one will be like the Argentine star: “I don’t think anyone would be bothered by being compared to the best player in history, but in the end, it’s something that detracts from you because you are never going to be like him.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/barcelona-explain-the-story-behind-the-viral-photo-of-lionel-messi-with-a-baby-lamine-yamal"></div>






<h2>Messi and Yamal could face off at the 2025 Finalissima</h2>



Spain’s victory at the European Championship and Argentina’s second consecutive Copa America triumph means Yamal and Messi could face each other <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/potential-date-and-venue-for-the-2025-finalissima-between-euro-and-copa-america-champions">in the 2025 Finalissima</a>.



Of course, this depends on whether UEFA and Conmebol agree on playing this match like they did in 2022, when Argentina beat Italy at Wembley. But <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lamine-yamal-is-ready-to-face-lionel-messi-in-possible-blockbuster-game-at-finalissima">Yamal has already admitted he would love to play the Finalissima against Messi</a>.



<h2>Messi sees Yamal as a future Ballon d’Or winner</h2>



Shortly after receiving a record eighth Ballon d’Or in 2023, the Argentine star admitted that may have been his last award, naming other players who will probably be in contention in the years to come. And <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messi-sees-lamine-yamal-as-a-potential-ballon-dor-contender-20231103-BUS-82906.html">Messi said we should keep an eye on Yamal for future Ballon d’Ors</a>.



“There may be a very beautiful rivalry in the coming years with players like Haaland, Mbappe, Vinicius and many young players competing for the Ballon d’Or. I also think that Lamine Yamal, who is still very young and now plays for Barcelona, ​​will play a prominent role and fight for it in the future too., Messi told L’Equipe in November 2023.

Football will experience a Sunday of definitions. Two continental finals will be played on July 14: at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain">Spain</a> will face England for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">Euro 2024</a>, while at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> and Colombia will meet for the Copa America 2024.



It is important to note that the winners of both continental tournaments would face each other in the Finalissima. If Spain is crowned champion of Euro 2024 and Argentina wins the final against Colombia in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America 2024</a>, both teams would face each other.



If this match takes place, it would be the first time that the young figure <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a> faces <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>. Since his debut at Barcelona in mid-2023, the young Spanish has not had the opportunity to play against Inter Miami, the Argentine star’s team.



<h2>Lamine Yamal vs Lionel Messi in the Finalissima 2025</h2>



Lamine Yamal, one of the stars of the Spanish national team, spoke about the final against England and the possibility of facing Lionel Messi in the Finalissima: “I hope that Messi wins the Copa America and I win the European Championship so that I can play against him in the Finalissima.”



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240713_BUS_144749_Lionel-Messi-4-1024x576_5ee9f168.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-144778" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Lionel-Messi-4-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Lionel-Messi-4-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Lionel-Messi-4-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Lionel-Messi-4-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/Lionel-Messi-4.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Lionel Messi 10 of Argentina during the CONMEBOL Copa America – Semifinal game against Canada on July 9, 2024 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

<h2>When and where will the Finalissima 2025 be played?</h2>



The exact date of the match is not yet defined. What is known is that it will be played between June and July 2025. The last edition was played on June 1, 2022. As for the venue, there is some dispute. CONMEBOL wants the match to be played in South America, while UEFA prefers it to be played in Europe.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/potential-date-and-venue-for-the-2025-finalissima-between-euro-and-copa-america-champions"></div>


There is still no official decision on the matter. It is expected that in the coming weeks the venue and date of the meeting will be announced. Beyond the definition of the continental champions, the Finalissima also generates expectation for the possibility of a duel between Messi and Yamal. Two talents who are already causing a sensation in the world of football and who could star in a great battle in the future.

Lamine Yamal just celebrated his 17th birthday as he gets ready to lead <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain">Spain</a> against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/england">England</a> in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/potential-date-and-venue-for-the-2025-finalissima-between-euro-and-copa-america-champions">UEFA Euro 2024 final</a>. It’s been a remarkable tournament for the rising star of Barcelona alongside his great friend, Nico Williams.



As a consequence, Lamine’s talent at such a young age has been compared to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>. The similarities are there. Same club in Europe and a historic impact to take a national team to the next level.



Of course, the story between the Argentine legend and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a> had a tremendous plot twist thanks to an old and currently viral photo. After the massive impact of the image worldwide, Lamine decided to explain if he knew anything about it.



<h2>Lamine Yamal reveals if he knew about famous baby photo with Lionel Messi</h2>



During an interview with Gerard Romero, Lamine Yamal spoke about the famous image in which he appears as a baby alongside Lionel Messi. It was part of The Barça Foundation 2008 solidarity calendar in collaboration with Diario Sport and Unicef.







“No. I have never been able to speak with him about it. I wish I could have spoken with him, but I never have. The truth is that I wasn’t even aware at that moment that I was with Messi (in the photo). The first person to show me the photo was my father, and we never made it public because, in the end, we didn’t want comparisons between Leo and me.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/uefa-euro/video-spain-prodigy-lamine-yamal-scores-fantastic-goal-against-france-in-euro-2024"></div>


Yamal responded whether it currently bothers him that there are so many comparisons with Messi due to his great performance in Euro 2024 with Spain. The 17-year-old is the main candidate to win the award for the Best Player of the tournament.



“No. I don’t think anyone would be bothered by being compared to the best player in history, but in the end, it’s something that detracts from you because you are never going to be like him.”

There are many big names in world soccer, but not many look so promising as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a>. The teenager has already broken countless records with both Barcelona and the Spanish national team, which is why fans are eager to see his development.



At 15 years, 9 months and 16 days, Yamal became the youngest debutant in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">Barcelona</a> history when he came on in the final minutes of the 4-0 win over Betis in LaLiga on April 29, 2023.



From then on, the La Masia product established himself in the first team, eventually drawing <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain">Spain</a>‘s attention as well. His reported salary, however, has yet to reflect his progress and potential.



<h2>Lamine Yamal’s contract with Barcelona</h2>



On October 2, 2023, Lamine Yamal signed a contract extension with Barcelona through June 2026. Though the terms of the deal weren’t completely revealed, the club did announce that it includes a €1 billion release clause.

<h2>How much does Lamine Yamal make a week?</h2>



According to Capology, Lamine Yamal has a base salary of €1,670,000 per season or €32,115 per week, without considering bonuses. If we consider his weekly salary on a monthly basis it would be €128,460 per month; €4,588 per day; €191 per hour; €3.2 per minute; or €0.05 per second.

In the last few hours, social media has gone wild with the picture of a young Lionel Messi holding a baby <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a> in his arms. And it didn’t take long for Barcelona to explain the story behind this photo, which promises to become iconic.



Call it destiny or coincidence, but the 20-year-old Messi was pictured with a six-month-old Yamal for a 2008 charity calendar organized by the FC <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">Barcelona</a> Foundation in association with Catalan outlet Sport to raise funds for UNICEF and the Foundation’s charity work.



The project started in 2004, with an annual calendar being printed each year. According to a club statement, the 2008 edition aimed to highlight “the programmes for the support of children around the world and was supported by members of the senior football team.”



Apart from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Messi</a>, the likes of Deco, Bojan Krkic, Rafa Marquez and Xavi Hernandez were also chosen to appear in the photos. And that’s how Leo happened to take a picture with a baby who would eventually draw comparisons with him in world soccer.

<h2>Years after the viral photo, Yamal looks to follow in Messi’s footsteps</h2>



Since that picture was taken, Lionel Messi went on to make a case to be considered not only the greatest player to ever don the FC Barcelona uniform, but also the best to ever play the game. The Argentine holds club records for most appearances and goals, among many other milestones.






<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231103#BUS#82906"></div>


But Lamine <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lamine-yamal-all-the-records-broken-by-barcelonas-new-prodigy-20231009-BUS-73573.html">Yamal has also been setting many records of his own</a>, having established himself with Barcelona’s first team at only 16. Now, his name is making even more headlines as he shines for Spain at the UEFA Euro 2024.



Leo left Catalonia a few years before Yamal got promoted to the first team, so they didn’t get the chance to play together after the now historic picture. But there’s a possibility <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lamine-yamal-and-lionel-messi-could-face-each-other-in-the-finalissima">Messi and Yamal face each other on the international stage</a> in the near future.

Back in 2007, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lamine Yamal</a>‘s family lucked out—they scored a chance for their six-month-old baby to star in a photoshoot with a Barcelona player. The shoot was for a charity calendar, and guess who the lucky player was? None other than a young 20-year-old <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lionel Messi</a>, just starting to make waves in his Barcelona career.



Fast forward to 2024, and it’s Yamal who is making major waves now at only 16 years of age, playing for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Spain</a> in the Euros. Lamine Yamal has scored 1 goal and provided 3 assists in 6 matches in the competition. At the senior level, he has played 51 games for Barcelona, scoring 7 goals and providing 11 assists.



To say he is not a gem in the making is an understatement. Now, the GOAT and the future may face each other in a competition that holds a lot of bragging rights.

If Messi is still a part of the Argentine national team and wins the Copa America, and if Yamal is with Spain and they win the 2024 Euros, the two players could meet in the Finalissima, which <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Argentina</a> has won outright.

In the Finalissima between Italy and Argentina, Argentina emerged victorious, winning 3-0. They prevailed over Italy in a match that showcased their strength and strategy, securing a notable win in this highly anticipated contest.

Lamine Yamal and Lionel Messi could face each other! Find out how

Lamine Yamal and Lionel Messi could face each other in the Finalissima - Bolavip US

All eyes were on Kylian Mbappe, but it was Lamine Yamal who took all the limelight in the UEFA Euro 2024 semifinal by leading Spain‘s comeback win against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/france">France</a>. And the youngster had something to say to Adrien Rabiot.



The French midfielder raised eyebrows in his press conference ahead of the match by downplaying what <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Yamal</a> had shown so far: “If Lamine Yamal wants to play in the Euro 2024 final with Spain, he will have to do much more against us than he has done so far.”



Those comments eventually backfired, as they only served as bulletin board material for the Spanish sensation. “Speak now, speak now!,” said Yamal to the cameras as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain">Spain</a> celebrated the 2-1 win in Munich. Later, he told Miguel Angel Diaz of COPE: “Rabiot’s words? There’s no need to give importance to that.”



Shortly before the Euro 2024 semifinal, Yamal had already sent a subtle reply to Rabiot, posting the following picture on Instagram stories.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="520" height="836" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240709_BUS_143137_image-8_18a3bdfe.webp&amp;width=520&amp;height=836" alt="" class="wp-image-143165" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/image-8.png 520w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/image-8-187x300.png 187w" sizes="(max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px"></figure></figure>



<h2>Yamal proves Rabiot wrong by helping Spain beat France in Euro 2024 semis</h2>



Despite being only 16, the FC Barcelona prodigy proved to have plenty of character and maturity for his age. Only 21 minutes into the game, with Spain trailing 1-0 as Mbappe provided a great assist for Randal Kolo Muani earlier in the match, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro/video-spain-prodigy-lamine-yamal-scores-fantastic-goal-against-france-in-euro-2024">Yamal fired home a fantastic goal to make things level against France</a>.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="742" height="605" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240709_BUS_143137_image-7_d09c9a8a.webp&amp;width=742&amp;height=605" alt="" class="wp-image-143146" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/image-7.png 742w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/image-7-300x245.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 742px) 100vw, 742px"></figure></figure>



That goal immediately lifted Luis de la Fuente’s men, who took the lead only four minutes later with Dani Olmo turning things around. Spain held on to their lead, and eventually gained the upper hand. Even though he’s just a kid, Yamal has already proven one of his doubters wrong.

<h2>Yamal to turn 17 a day before the Euro 2024 final with Spain</h2>



Yamal’s upcoming birthday will be definitely special for the promising midfielder, who will turn 17 on Saturday, just a day before the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">UEFA Euro 2024</a> final, where Spain will play England or the Netherlands in Berlin.



Having broken countless records both with Barcelona and the Spanish national team, Yamal is making a name for himself very early in his career, emerging as the face of a new generation of stars set to take center stage in the years to come.

Lamine Yamal fires back at Adrien Rabiot as Spain beat France in Euro 2024 semifinals - Bolavip US

Lamine Yamal is only 16, but he looks like the real deal. With <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain">Spain</a> trailing 1-0 to France early in the UEFA Euro 2024 semifinals, the FC Barcelona youngster came up with a moment of magic to make things level in Munich.



Only 21 minutes into the match, and with La Furia losing as Kylian Mbappe delivered a perfect assist to Randal Kolo Muani, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Yamal</a> decided to try from long range and found the net in fantastic fashion.



Of course, this goal makes Yamal the youngest player ever to score in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">European Championship</a> history. The teenager has already broken countless records both at Barcelona and with the national team, but he’s just getting started.

<h2>Yamal’s equalizer propels Spain’s comeback win over France</h2>



Not only did Yamal put the Spanish national team back in the game with that impressive rocket, but he also propelled his side to turn things around only a few minutes later.



Just four minutes after Yamal’s beautiful goal, Dani Olmo finished off an outstanding play to give Spain the lead against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/france">France</a>. Needless to say, Yamal’s goal gave Luis de la Fuente’s men momentum to completely change the outlook of this Euro 2024 semifinal.

<h2>Spain advance to Euro 2024 final</h2>



Inspired by Yamal’s fantastic goal and thanks to Dani Olmo’s winner, Spain claimed a come-from-behind victory over France to reach the UEFA Euro 2024 final in Germany.



On Sunday, July 14, at 3:00 PM (ET) the three-time Europan Championship winners will take on England or the Netherlands in the grand final at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

Video: Spain prodigy Lamine Yamal scores fantastic goal against France in Euro 2024 - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a> is not only one of the brightest prospects Spain has seen in a long time, but also a pivotal player for Luis de la Fuente’s side at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/uefa-euro">UEFA Euro 2024</a>. However, it looks like he could cost the team a fine by playing against Albania on Monday.



How’s that? Well, let’s take a look. German regulations prohibit people aged under 18 from working past 8:00 PM, while in the case of athletes the authorization extends to 11:00 PM. 



But since Spain and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/albania">Albania</a> will play at 9:00 PM, the Spanish FA could end up violating the law if Yamal plays. That’s because the law considers the time for showering and media duties as working hours both for Germans and foreigners. 



According to German outlet Bild, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/spain">Spain</a> are not at risk of suffering sporting punishment. But Stephan Graf, a legal expert at the University of Konstanz, claims the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) could be fined nearly €30,000.

Yamal started in Spain’s two group stage wins so far, so chances are he remains in the starting eleven to face Albania. In the event that happens, we’ll have to wait and see whether Spain find a way to avoid the violation of the law, and therefore the fine.

<h2>Lamine Yamal, a generational talent inspiring Spain</h2>







Born on July 13, 2007, Yamal has drawn everyone’s attention since making his debut for Barcelona on April 29, 2023. At 15 years, 9 months and 16 days, he became the youngest debutant in club history and went on to break even more records.



Lamine immediately became a key player for Xavi Hernandez and it didn’t take him long to get called up to the Spanish national team. With two goals in nine caps, the 16-year-old is already giving the country reasons for optimism.

UEFA Euro 2024: Spain could be fined if Lamine Yamal plays against Albania

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/robert-lewandowski">Robert Lewandowski</a> appeared to ignore <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lamine-yamal">Lamine Yamal</a> when the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">Barcelona</a> youngster tried to shake hands with the striker during the 2-1 win over Alaves on Sunday. The clip immediately went viral, with many questioning Lewy’s attitude.



The situation happened after Yamal decided to make a play on his own rather than pass the ball to Lewandowski, who was waiting on the box. In a press conference with the Pole national team, the 35-year-old set the record straight.



“Honestly, there is not comment on it, because it was just an incident. So when it comes to my relationship with him, I have helped him several times and gave him advice, even in this game,” Lewandowski said, via Pole journalist Błażej Łukaszewski.



While the clip gave a lot to talk about, Barca fans on social media have also shown how Lewandowski then talked to Yamal after scoring his comeback goal, proving they only had an incident before. According to Sport, the pair worked things out in the locker room and were surprised by how the media reacted to the situation.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="666" height="733" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231113_BUS_84861_image-4.webp&amp;width=666&amp;height=733" alt="" class="wp-image-84872" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/image-4.png 666w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/11/image-4-273x300.png 273w" sizes="(max-width: 666px) 100vw, 666px"></figure></figure>



“It’s normal to say or shout something on the pitch,” Lewandowski added. “The entire situation is an incident out of context, and has no meaning. It happens.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231103#BUS#82906"></div>


<h2>Lewandowski helps Barcelona get a much-needed win</h2>



While his viral moment with Yamal was one of the biggest storylines of the game, Lewandowski should’ve made more headlines for helping Barca turn things around. Samuel Omorodion put Alaves in front in the first minute, forcing the hosts to run from behind for much of the game.



It wasn’t until the 53rd minute that Lewandowski put things level, before he gave his side the lead from the penalty spot after 78 minutes. Thanks to his brace, Xavi Hernandez’s men claimed all three points to keep themselves within touching distance of Girona.



Barca are currently third in the LaLiga standings with 30 points, four shy of the surprising leaders. They’re also two points shy of Real Madrid, who emerged victorious in the Spanish Clasico a few weeks ago.


<div class="wp_fsn_poll" id="655278b8f2b571abd7e484c0" data-title="Will Barcelona finish top of LaLiga?" data-options="2"></div>


<h2>What’s next for Barcelona</h2>



With the international break taking center stage, Barcelona won’t play until Saturday, November 25, when they visit Rayo Vallecano on Matchday 14 of LaLiga. From then on, Xavi’s side will enter a stretch of crucial fixtures.



On Nov. 28, they will host Porto in a crucial UEFA Champions League game. On Sunday, December 3, Barca will take on Atletico Madrid. The following week, they will come up against Girona with their league aspirations at stake. Three days later, they close the Champions League group stage against Antwerp.

Robert Lewandowski sets record straight over handshake snub to Lamine Yamal

Robert Lewandowski sets record straight over handshake snub to Lamine Yamal - Bolavip US

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> won the Ballon d’Or for the eighth time in 2023, following a memorable World Cup win with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> in December. At 36, the Inter Miami star knows this may have been the last time he receives the award. From now on, he <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/lionel-messis-message-to-mbappe-haaland-after-winning-2023-ballon-dor-20231030-BUS-81894.html">expects the likes of Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe</a> to win it. But he also sees Lamine Yamal as a potential candidate in the future.



“There may be a very beautiful rivalry in the coming years with players like Haaland, Mbappe, Vinicius and many young players competing for the Ballon d’Or. I also think that Lamine Yamal, who is still very young and now plays for Barcelona, ​​will play a prominent role and fight for it in the future too. There will certainly be others competing for it, new players that we do not know will appear, because there are always new players. And I think it will be a very beautiful era to enjoy,” Messi told L’Equipe.



Leo feels that this has probably been his last Ballon d’Or. Not only because he left Europe and Father Time will eventually catch up to him. But also because there’s a younger generation of players starting to make a case for themselves. 



Haaland, for instance, was a strong candidate this year too. The Norwegian sensation scored an impressive 52 goals last season, helping Manchester City secure the treble (Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup). Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Vinicius may also be next on the list. But Leo is looking ahead in time as he sees Yamal’s progress at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">Barcelona</a> as a promising sign.

<h2>Lamine Yamal’s breakthrough at Barcelona</h2>



Since Messi’s bond with Barcelona is unbreakable, he continues to follow the club. That’s why Yamal’s evolution hasn’t gone unnoticed. The La Masia product made his senior debut last season, becoming the youngest player to see first-team action in club history at 15.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231030#BUS#81912"></div>


The right winger continued to get playing time this season, becoming the youngest starter in LaLiga history at 16 years and 38 days old. On top of that, Lamine was called up to the senior Spanish national team. Of course, he also broke records at the international level, becoming the youngest player to score and play for Spain at 16 years and 57 days old.



Xavi Hernandez is still taking things slowly with Yamal, who is just taking his first steps as a professional player. Barca handed him his first contract in the summer, tying the winger down to a three-year deal. According to Transfermarkt, his market value is €50 million.



<h2>Barcelona looking to find the next Messi</h2>



While it may be too soon to compare the kid to Messi, many people in Barcelona already started to draw parallels between them. However, it’s always better to be careful about these comparisons. Ansu Fati was also seen as Messi’s potential successor until injuries stood in his way.


<div class="wp_fsn_poll" id="65457bdaf2b571abd7e4732f" data-title="Will Lamine Yamal win the Ballon d\&apos;Or in the future?" data-options="2"></div>


But it seems that this is something inevitable. Barcelona have never seen something like Messi before, and it’s hard to accept that he’s gone. At 36, the Rosario-born star is under contract with Inter Miami through 2025. 



Never say never, but it’s hard to imagine him playing at Camp Nou again. The board had the opportunity to make that happen this year, but they blew it. Messi will return for a tribute, and he may even return in another role. But since his playing career at Barca may have ended, the club will constantly be on the lookout for the “new Messi.”
