With passing times ahead of Ronaldo or Messi at the same age, Yamal will have to fuel up to maintain this dynamic. But obviously, Rivaldo is not worried about the 17-year-old striker. In an interview given to Sport this Sunday, the 1999 Ballon d’Or had strong words about the Spaniard, for whom he still sees great things in the years to come, and in whom he finds himself on certain points.
“The one who charms everyone today is Lamine. He’s an impressive player. At times, yes, I see myself in him because I entered the field to take advantage of this chance to play football, with this joy… He has this joy, he plays to have fun, he takes pleasure and the fans too. He’s 17 and plays like he’s 26 or 27confided the former Barcelona player. He will surely be a great one, even if he already is, because he does an excellent job: he is European champion, he is excellent in Barcelona… But one day, he will be the best in the world. A future Ballon d’Or? Of course. If he keeps working and does things well, he will surely win it. We have to protect him, because he is a talented player. »
