Yamal, who appeared together with Hye-sang in the 2023-2024 season, scored 7 goals and 10 assists, receiving praise as 'the second mesh'. Yamal is different from the "second mesh" that has been numerous so far. He is only 16 years old. King Felipe VI of Spain visited the locker room of the Spanish national team after completing the second Group B match against Italy in Schalke Arena-Auf Schalke, Germany, on the 21st (Korea time). Spain won 1-0 thanks to Calafior's own goal with Ricard in the 10th minute of the second half, tying a 3-0 win over Croatia in the first round to win two consecutive games and earning a ticket to the round of 16.
Felipe VI, who opened the locker room door to encourage the team, said "He was very good." Even if it wasn't his own goal, he could have won. There were many chances. It was a great game,' he praised the team. Felipe VI, who greeted players and staff one by one, stood in front of Yamal. Felipe VI asked Yamal about his age, and he replied "16". Then, King Felipe VI was surprised as he clasped his head in his hands.
Yamal is a 'student star' who does his school homework even during the competition. However, skills are not student-level. Yamal scored the youngest goal in Euro history by scoring an equalizer in the last quarter-final against France. Yamal is the ace among the aces who proudly led the Spanish national team to the final with his skills. He is also one of the most notable stars in the final.
Naturally, it is receiving the attention of big clubs. Paris Saint-Germain, who sent Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, is the most active. Like Paris Saint-Germain, who can spend as much money as he wants, he is showing great interest in recruiting Yamal.
According to Avola on the 11th, Paris Saint-Germain has already made an offer to Barcelona to recruit Yamal. The amount is 250 million euros. Of course, it is the highest amount in football history. But Barcelona refused. Barcelona, struggling with financial difficulties, has said it will never send a next-generation star who can lead its team's attacks for more than a decade.
