“He Nearly Ended Their Careers!” – Nerazzurri Stunned by 17-Year-Old’s Brilliance in UCL Clash
In the build-up to the Champions League final, top Inter Milan players — Alessandro Bastoni, Yann Sommer, and Marcus Thuram — have unanimously agreed: the toughest player they faced all season was none other than Lamine Yamal.
Despite Inter defeating Barcelona in the semi-finals, the 17-year-old sensation gave the Italian giants a nightmarish challenge over both legs. His dazzling dribbles, fearless play, and sheer unpredictability left defenders like Dimarco scrambling, with fans joking that he “nearly ended their careers.”
What the Inter Camp Said:
Bastoni, who swapped shirts with Yamal post-match, showed clear respect.
Sommer admitted he “never expected such danger from someone that young.”
Thuram confessed Yamal was “unlike anyone we faced in Serie A.”
Why It Matters:
This public praise cements Lamine Yamal’s status as a generational talent. At just 17, he’s not only Barcelona’s breakout star but now revered by European veterans. The fans echo the sentiment, with calls for a Ballon d’Or in his future and viral moments like his father screaming “Visca el Barça!” during his new contract celebration.
The Message Is Clear:
Lamine Yamal has arrived. Europe has taken notice — and he’
s only just begun.
