Lamine's Father Blasts Live Comparisons with Messi: 'My Son is...'

Lamine's Father Speaks on El Chiringuito and Makes Very Clear What He Thinks About His Son's Comparisons to Messi

Right now, the great sensation in both Spain and among the culés is clearly the young Barcelona footballer Lamine Yamal. Although being only 17 years old seems very young to attract so much attention, he has shown an outstanding level. But as always, Barcelona fans immediately began to make comparisons between the player and their stars like Messi or Maradona.

Obviously, this has caused an unbelievable amount of varied comments on social media, completely rejecting these comparisons. But his father, through El Chiringuito de Jugones, has put an end to these comparisons and made it very clear. "My son is Lamine Yamal and we don't like comparisons with Messi or Maradona," he clarified directly on the program.

This has been a real blow for those who want to compare the Barcelona footballer with the great star of culé soccer. For many, the comparisons end up being harmful, even when it comes to equating him with the best player in the history of this team.

They Don't Consider Themselves Anyone

The boy has known how to face the complicated environment in which his club was and has carried the team on his shoulders. Another very different thing is to talk about his more recent attitudes, where he has completely sinned of arrogance and even to the point of becoming ridiculous.

However, in the soccer aspect, there is little more to say to such a young player who has managed to turn his team's situation around. However, for many, this stance by the father is only a cover for what they really prove to be.

The boy has shown himself to be quite against Real Madrid and everything related to this institution, which is the greatest in soccer. An extremely anti-Madrid attitude that they want to try to hide with a false humility that they haven't shown in public.

We Don't Know If It's True

While it is very difficult to admit that this is a reality or just a smokescreen, for now, it is what they have expressed to us on the microphone. Although, knowing Madridism, they will take it with a grain of salt, as it is somewhat strange.
