Lamine Yamal is 18. But he thinks like someone who already sees himself in a World Cup final.
The Barcelona and Spain national team midfielder spoke about his friendship with Neymar — and at the same time outlined his dream scenario:
“I like Brazil, I want to go back there. I spoke with Neymar, and we decided that if we both reach the World Cup final, we’ll go on vacation together afterwards. I’m waiting for a Spain vs Brazil final at the 2026 World Cup.”
The 2026 World Cup will take place in North America — hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The format will be expanded, and the competition even tougher. The reigning champion is Argentina. But if you listen to Yamal, there’s already a different headline in his mind.
Spain vs Brazil. And Neymar somewhere nearby.
