Lamine Yamal is poised to make more history at Barcelona, with the teenage wonderkid set to smash a record currently held by Ansu Fati.
La Masia graduate Yamal has been rewriting the history books since stepping out of a famed academy system at the age of 15.
He is already the youngest player to figure for Barca in a competitive fixture and the youngest to register a goal for them in La Liga.
Yamal has also been starring at international level – becoming a European Championship winner with Spain the day after his 17th birthday.
The confidence and momentum established at that tournament has carried over into the 2024-25 campaign.
The highly-rated youngster, who is favourite to capture Kopa Trophy and Golden Boy crowns this season, bagged a brace for Barca in their 4-1 victory over Girona.
Those efforts have taken him to three for the season and eight in total across his outings in the Spanish top-flight.

Fellow home-grown star Fati netted 11 La Liga goals before turning 18 – a club record in Catalunya.
Given that Yamal will not reach a landmark birthday until July 2025, the expectation is that he will soar beyond that mark and help himself to another slice of history.
