Tuesday 10-02-2026
Lamine Yamal, the star of Barcelona, continues to break records this season, having scored 15 goals and provided 13 assists. Despite this, the 18-year-old remains enthusiastic about football with a youthful passion.

In his speech, Yamal said: "There is still a lot before the tournament, but the enthusiasm is the same among all Spaniards. We want to win and give our best. This is my first opportunity in the World Cup, and I will approach it naturally."

He added about Spain's participation in Group H: "We will face Cape Verde, Saudi Arabia, and Uruguay, and I will also enjoy discovering Mexico. I have never visited it before, and I will try some local foods."

Regarding his daily life away from football, Yamal mentioned: "I do what any boy does, I hang out with my friends, take care of my brother, play PlayStation, go for walks, and try not to focus solely on football. When I step onto the field, I give my all, and when I leave, I relax."

Regarding his ideal day without fame, Yamal said: "If I were invisible for a day, I would go have breakfast on a terrace, play a match in the park, then ride a bike or scooter with my friends, just ordinary things."

He talked about his simple childhood: "We used to play with Pokémon cards that cost only one euro, and we couldn't afford to buy a PlayStation. Today, I have become a global advertising face, and I choose Zygarde as my favorite Pokémon."
