Rashford on Lamine Yamal:
“It’s a privilege to play alongside someone like him.”
Speaking about his new teammate, Marcus Rashford didn’t hold back his admiration for young sensation Lamine Yamal, describing the teenage prodigy as a once-in-a-generation talent.
“Playing with Lamine Yamal? Honestly, he’s something else. You watch him and you just knowyou’re witnessing something incredibly rare.”
Rashford went on to praise Yamal’s maturity, footballing intelligence, and natural flair on the ball, emphasizing that despite his age, the young winger already stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the game’s elite.
“For me, last season, he was genuinely one of the best players in the world. In fact, you could argue he was the best in terms of impact, consistency, and sheer brilliance. That’s not just hype it’s truth.”
The England international sounded genuinely thrilled about what lies ahead:
“So yeah, it’s exciting. Extremely exciting. To be able to share the pitch with someone like that, to link up with a player of his vision and creativityit gives me even more motivation to perform at my highest level. We’ve got something special brewing here.”
Rashford and Yamal two players from completely different generations now find themselves on the same team, united under the Barcelona crest. And if Rashford’s words are anything to go by, fans should be ready for fireworks this season.
