Lamine Yamal: Europe’s Top Dribbler Under 23 Shines Bright at 16
In a recent study conducted by the CIES Football Observatory, 16-year-old Lamine Yamal has emerged as the standout dribbler under the age of 23 in Europe’s top five leagues. Averaging an impressive six dribbles per game, he comfortably outshines more experienced stars like Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Bukayo Saka, both of whom are six years his senior.
This extraordinary feat by the young talent is a testament to his exceptional skills and agility on the field. Since making his senior squad debut for Barcelona in March, Yamal has made appearances in 15 games, contributing with one goal and three assists, further solidifying his reputation as a rising star to watch in the football world.
