Suárez gives important advice to the jewel Lamine Yamal
Luis Suárez Praises Lamine Yamal’s Brilliance: "Maturity Beyond His Years… I’m Proud of Him as a Barcelona Fan"
Uruguayan star Luis Suárez, current striker for Inter Miami and former Barcelona legend, expressed his deep admiration for the incredible performances of Lamine Yamal, the rising star in Barcelona’s squad who, at just 17 years old, has already become a focal point of attention in the football world.
Speaking at a press conference held as part of his team's preparations for the FIFA Club World Cup, Suárez did not hide his amazement at Yamal’s high-level displays, praising his remarkable skills and exceptional maturity on the pitch despite his young age.
Suárez said:
"Some players mature earlier than others, and Lamine Yamal is a perfect example of that. Even though he’s only 17, he plays on the pitch like someone with years of experience. He takes responsibility, plays with confidence and composure — traits that are rarely seen in players his age."
The former Barcelona striker added:
"These challenges he sets for himself at such a high level of competition reflect his ambitious personality. And as a Barcelona fan before being a former player, I feel great happiness and pride seeing a young talent of this caliber wear the club’s shirt and give so much on the field."
Suárez also emphasized the importance of Yamal continuing his development, saying:
"What’s most important now is for him to keep enjoying the game, learning, and growing day by day — just like all of us did between the ages of 18 and 25. His future is wide open, and if he maintains this level, he will achieve a great deal."
It’s worth noting that Lamine Yamal is currently enjoying a phenomenal season with Barcelona. He played a key role in helping the team win La Liga, and is one of the brightest young stars expected to lead Spain in the upcoming UEFA European Championship. Many are already tipping him as a strong contender for the Ballon d'Or in the near future.
Barcelona — a club long known for producing top talent — seems to be witnessing the rise of a new star who could follow in the footsteps of legends like Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, and perhaps even Suárez himself.
