The Spanish team became the strongest team in European Cup in the group stage and the youth Lamine Yamal, only 16 years old, one of the sensations. The Barça winger is one of the most valued experts in Germany and outside of Germany as well. Former Ajax and Genoa player Marciano Vink, 53, praised the culé pearl.
Asked who, in his opinion, is the star of this Euro, he said: “Lamine Yamal.” “He’s only 16 years old and he’s exceptional. At that age you usually don’t have the right speed and you still can’t keep up physically. What he shows technically is not normal. There are quite a few good wingers, like Jamal Musiala, but if you can do it at the highest level at the age of 16…”.
Vink added more praises and attributes to Lamine: “We all know how much pressure there is in a European Championship and many players succumb to it. Lamine is sixteen years old and plays with total freedom and without pressure, he shows it every game. In that sense, I think it will really get people talking,” he said.
