Lamine Yamal names the one player he would sign for Barcelona

Barcelona starlet Lamine Yamal has this week revealed the identity of his dream signing for the Blaugrana.

The player in question? Jamal Musiala.

Midfielder Musiala’s name has of course long proven a prominent one in the headlines in Catalunya’s capital.

Owing to his technical excellence, the 21-year-old is considered by many to be a perfect fit for the trademark free-flowing football employed by Barcelona

Not only that, but Musiala has previously spent time working under Blaugrana head coach Hansi Flick, with both Bayern Munich, and the German national team.

The youngster recently put pen to paper on fresh terms with the former, all but bringing an end to the hopes of the Camp Nou brass of finding a deal for Musiala.

But as alluded to above, one individual who would nevertheless love nothing more than to see his fellow attacking talent line out in the colours of Barcelona is Lamine Yamal.

Speaking during an interview with Mundo Deportivo this week, the 17-year-old was asked to name three non-Blaugrana players whom he enjoys:

”Musiala, Neymar, Savinho,” Lamine replied.

Pressed further on which of these three he would sign for Barcelona if afforded the chance, the Spanish international added:

”You want me to say Neymar… but no: Musiala, who has a contract.”
