Former World best footballer award winning legend, Zinedine Zidane, has announced that the Spanish wonderfully talented teenage footballer, Lamine Yamal is the World’s best footballer at present.
The French football legend and ace coach disclosed this while airing his candid opinion sports writers on who should receive the prestigious Ballon d’Or award this year among the top performing footballers around the globe. He said: There are so many incredible talents like Olise, Cherki, Pedri, Palmer, Rice, Dembélé… all top players. But if we’re honest, one player stands above the rest.
Lamine Yamal is the best right now. He’s not just talented, he’s unique. At his age he’s doing things even experienced players struggle with, vision, confidence, big game impact… it’s rare.
Asked again What about Arda Güler, Bellingham, Vinícius Jr, and Mbappé? The former Real Madrid tremble Champions League winning coach responded, yes, they are all world-class. But when you’re a Real Madrid player, sometimes ego becomes a problem, because players don’t always focus on how to win trophies or help the team.
Instead, there’s too much attention on comparisons and trying to match Barcelona players. That mentality can affect consistency.
Meanwhile, Lamine plays with freedom, no fear… just football. That’s why he’s at the top right now.
Further a asked, so he’s the best in the world Right now? Yes. Zidane emphatically declared and further explained why he is the best player in the World. He authoritatively asserted; “Pure impact, confidence, decision-making, he’s operating at a level most players can’t reach even in their prime, but football changes fast.”
