Galatasaray winger Rafael Leão has said he hopes Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal wins the Ballon d’Or and major trophies with the Catalan club.
In an online interview on Tuesday, the Portuguese winger called Yamal one of the best players in the world.
He praised Yamal as a player and as a person.
He also said Yamal is a friend and spoke highly of the good players around him at Barcelona.
The comments came after Barcelona’s Champions League game against Galatasaray, where Yamal showed again why he is one of Europe’s most exciting young players.
He is only 19.
