FC Barcelona: Andrés Iniesta encourages Lamine Yamal

Barça legend Andrés Iniesta keeps a close eye on the latest developments at the Catalan club. Recently, he offered some wise advice to Lamine Yamal.

Andrés Iniesta is closely following the performances of his former club, FC Barcelona. As the Blaugrana reclaimed the top spot in the standings this weekend, the 2010 World Cup winner is counting on Lamine Yamal to continue his development and lead the Catalan club forward.

"Lamine Yamal must keep improving. He has the talent and work ethic needed to do it. It's a big challenge for him, but he has everything required to rise to it. I hope he continues to progress as he has so far. Because it's very positive, especially for Barcelona fans and for Spain, to have a player of this level, someone who truly makes a difference," the former midfielder told Spanish media.
