Lionel Messi reinforces Lamin Yamal’s desire to win the Euro 2024 title with the Spanish national team, and the secret is his determination to play against them face to face for the first time in his career.
Yamal, who has just completed his seventeenth year, will play in the Euro final with Spain against England on Sunday at the Olympic Stadium, and aspires to achieve his first official title in his football career.
On the night of the same day, Messi will play with Argentina against Colombia in the Copa America final, and if the Tango country wins the title and Spain wins the Euro, they will meet in the “finalissima”, which brings together the champions of the Old Continent and South America.
While speaking to Catalunya Radio, Yamal said, “I want to win the Euros and for Messi to win the Copa America so that we can meet in finalissima.”
Yamal announced earlier that he had never spoken to Lionel Messi, and that he dreams of playing with him or in front of him one day.
The Barcelona star met Messi as a baby in the famous photo between them in the bathtub, and the owner of Moroccan origins also took a photo with him when he was young inside the walls of Barcelona.
