Lamine Yamal unites Ronaldo and Messi in his dream XI

Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal has revealed his all-time dream XI, uniting football legends Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

Yamal’s dream team revelation comes shortly after he was handed Barcelona’s iconic No.10 shirt, previously worn by legends such as Messi, Ronaldinho, Romario, and Diego Maradona.

The number became vacant following Ansu Fati’s loan move to AS Monaco.

Carrying the symbolic weight of the No.10 shirt at such a young age, Yamal is quickly carving a legacy of his own.

Though his selection of more Real Madrid players might raise eyebrows among die-hard Barcelona fans.

In a recent interview with CGTN Sports Scene, the 17-year-old wonderkid named a glittering lineup of footballing greats, six of whom once wore the white jersey of Los Blancos, while the remaining five represent the rich legacy of the Catalan giants.

Yamal’s selection includes idols he grew up watching, such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, and Neymar, alongside retired legends like Ronaldinho, Zinedine Zidane, and Iker Casillas.
