Real Madrid’s UCL-winning captain joins the ‘Lamine Yamal praising bandwagon’

Spain have worked well as a unit in the ongoing European Championships, but a large part of the limelight has fallen on the wingers and rightly so.

Nico Williams has been sensational for La Roja down the left flank and is one of Barcelona’s biggest targets for the summer. Starting on the right flank for Spain, meanwhile, is the Catalans’ very own Lamine Yamal.
