Lamine Yamal is enjoying the joys of fame. Indeed, the Barcelona teenager is having a rather lively summer, with a celebrity press and fans who don't miss a crumb of his vacation, marked by female conquests or activities with some of his teammates, but also with Neymar. The Brazilian's budding friendship with the Spaniard had also caused concern among many Barcelona fans , who are logically afraid that the Santos star could be a bad influence on the young star of the Roja.
A rather remarkable summer then, and inevitably, Lamine Yamal is impatient for the season to begin in order to prove to everyone that he has not been disturbed by all these extra-sporting soap operas. Mundo Deportivo also explains that the number 19 of Barça, who could also wear the number 10 as soon as the Liga resumes , is hungry for titles and goals. While he is expected on July 13 for the resumption of training, he has already made a request to his management.
Increase your stats
Indeed, he still wants to do more. After a full season, Lamine Yamal wants to progress and move up the ranks. He has therefore requested to be part of the penalty and free-kick takers for next season. This season, Robert Lewandowski was responsible for taking penalties, with Dani Olmo and Raphinha as secondary options. Lamine Yamal wants to enter the rotation, and while it seems difficult to see him taking the number 1 shooter role currently held by the Pole, he at least wants to be able to take a few. The same goes for free-kicks, which are generally assigned to Raphinha.
Lamine Yamal believes he can make a difference in both areas, particularly at the end of matches. This is a way to move up the ladder and contribute to the team's success, but also to boost his stats, of course. As we know, stats are particularly important in the run-up to the Ballon d'Or, and some players like Kylian Mbappé already benefit from penalties to boost them a little. It remains to be seen what Hansi Flick's decision will be on this matter.
