FC Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal scored for his country at the weekend to add another sensational piece of history to his CV. Imagine Kaizer Chiefs had a kid like this!

FC BARCELONA PRODIGY YAMAL MAKES HISTORY FOR SPAIN

Lamine Yamal scored for Spain in their 1-7 win at Georgia. In so doing, he became the country’s youngest-ever goal-scorer at 16 years and 57 days. The young attacker has an absurd goal-scoring record at all youth levels for Spanish giants Barcelona, with 357 goals in 249 games. Obviously, the step-up in quality from the academy and age group structures to the first team will be huge, but he’s clearly got the talent to make a big splash.
