Marcus Rashford on Lamine Yamal:
“It’s truly an honor to play alongside someone like him.”
In his first comments about his new teammate, Marcus Rashford couldn’t hide his admiration for Lamine Yamal. He described the young star as a rare talent the football world only sees once in a generation.
“Watching Lamine play is something special. When you see him on the ball, you instantly realize you’re witnessing brilliance that doesn’t come around often.”
Rashford praised Yamal’s maturity, football IQ, and effortless flair, highlighting that despite his young age, the winger is already performing at a world-class level.
“For me, he was easily one of the top players in the world last season. Honestly, you could say he was the best — based on his consistency, influence, and pure quality. That’s not an exaggeration, that’s just facts.”
The England international sounded energized by the partnership:
“It’s genuinely thrilling. Linking up with a player of his creativity and vision pushes me to give even more. We’ve got something powerful building here.”
Now, two players from different footballing generations — Rashford and Yamal — find themselves united in the same colors. And if Rashford’s passion is anything to go by, Barcelona fans are in for something special this season.
