The fear that Lamine Yamal provokes in defenders when he gets the ball on Barcelona's right flank has inevitably conjured up comparisons to a young, floppy-haired Lionel Messi. Now, Barcelona 17-year-old star will face one of the very few teams that Messi never could score against when Inter Milan visits on Wednesday in the opening game of their Champions League semifinal.

I admire Messi a lot, so I don’t want to compare myself with the best player in football's history,” Yamal added on Tuesday.

Nigerian rapper, Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has claimed that Barcelona youngster Lamine Yamal is better than Argentine legend, Lionel Messi. He made the claim in reaction to Yamal’s impressive display in Barcelona’s epic El Clasico victory over Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final.
