Young Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal has declared Lionel Messi as the greatest footballer of all time.
Yamal made the statement following Barcelona’s crowning as 2024/25 LaLiga champions on Thursday. The team clinched the title in a commanding fashion with a 2-0 victory over Espanyol.
Both Lamine Yamal and Fermin Lopez found the net, securing a decisive win for Barcelona, which allowed them to finish ahead of Real Madrid in the final standings.
In his post-match comments, Yamal praised Lionel Messi, currently with Inter Miami, labeling him the best football player in history.
The Spain international made it clear that he does not compare himself to Messi. “I’d never compare me with Messi… Leo is the best player ever,” Yamal stated, as quoted by trusted journalist Fabrizio Romano.
Lionel Messi had a stellar 21-year career at FC Barcelona before transferring to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) in 2021. During his time at the club, Messi won a record 34 trophies, including 10 La Liga titles and 4 UEFA Champions League trophies.
