A 5-winning champion at the age of 17, Yamal s ambition is never "becoming Messi"

In May, amid the applause of the Nou Camp, a 17-year-old boy stood in the C position that was highly anticipated - he was not a substitute, not a "star of hope", but the champion core who truly dominated the game.

In the duel with Espanyol, Yamal contributed one pass and one shot, leading Barcelona to win 2-0, and directly locked in the La Liga championship. The best in the whole game, and again belongs to this not-grown child. This is his second La Liga championship trophy in his career, and he is only 17 years and 306 days old.

This age is when most players are still struggling with the youth team. But he is already a champion of the top league.

This champion is not a "missing"

Some people say that young people are easily praised and killed. Once the data is good and the shots are too many, they are often given the titles of "New Messi" and "XX successor". But Yamal is different. He is not standing in the spotlight by gimmicks, but by fighting with one tough battle after another.

This game is the best example.

Facing his old rival Espanyol, Yamal gave a precise assist in the first half to help Barcelona take the lead. In the second half, he calmly pushed the ball in the penalty area and scored with a final say. The whole process is smooth and smooth, with both technology and judgment. He is not playing blindly, but knows the meaning of every move, which is the mature temperament of a top player.

Who would have thought that this young man who was killing all over the world had not even received the coming-of-age ceremony?

5 championship trophys, the young man has already won 5 championship trophys:

La Liga champion ×2

European Cup champion ×1

Copa del Rey champion ×1

Spanish Super Cup champion ×1

42}

Behind these honors are not the "familiar face" sitting on the bench, but the main performance of the real battle.

He is not a "future asset" protected in a critical battle, but a "present combat power" trusted by the coaching staff and dared to put it on the main battlefield.

This is the difference between him and those "child prodigy" in the past.

Faced with praise, he said: I don't want to be anyone, I just want to be myself after the game ended, the reporter asked very directly: "You brought Ronaldinho's smile back to Barcelona, ​​and your style of playing is like Neymar. Will you become another Messi in the future?" Questions like

are a temptation for many young players. Recognizing the halo of successors means higher attention and business value.

But Yamal was not led by the law.

He said: "I just want to realize my own value. After all, what I want to do is myself."

"Of course, I hope to be as good as Messi, because he is the best in history in my heart. But I want to play with my own style and stability."

These words are more powerful than "I want to take the golden ball." Because in this age when relying on marketing and packaging, it is the most difficult thing to insist on being yourself.

is not a "scheduled legend", but a growth step by step. Yamal has a complex background. He was born in a multicultural family, his father is Moroccan and his mother is from Guinea. He grew up in Barcelona and has been training in La Macia's youth training camp since he was a child. In this environment full of competition and elimination, he can squeeze into the first team step by step and gain a foothold, which shows that he is not only talented, but also has the ability to withstand pressure.

Many people don't know that he almost bid farewell to football due to injury when he was 12 years old, and the youth training assessment once classified him as "to be determined". But he held on his own.

From that time on, he understood one thing:

It is not up to others to define who you are, but to kick out who you are.

He did not use "Messi" as a template, but he took a more down-to-earth road

Messi won countless honors in Barcelona and is a role model that all young players yearn for. But Yamal did not try to copy that path. He is not in a hurry to compete for the Golden Globe Awards, nor to speculate on sky-high transfers, but chooses to "stabilize" himself first.

He said he wanted to pursue "stability", which was probably the most important word in his interview.

You must know that stability is the ability that all young players lack the most.

Many "child prodigy" started high and ended low after becoming famous at a young age, and were forgotten by the new generation of fans in three years. Yamal obviously knows this, so he is unwilling to fall into "fame anxiety", but rather pays more attention to the performance of each game and the choice after each breakthrough.

Conclusion: He is not the shadow of Messi, but Yamal himself

A person who can stay awake in the spotlight has a more future than any golden title.

17-year-old Yamal is now at the forefront of European football. He proved his talent with five championship trophys and a series of amazing data. His plan for the future is not imitation or following, but self-realization, self-breakthrough, and self-provement.

He will not be the next Messi.

He was the first Yamal.
