FC Barcelona: when Lamine Yamal compares Raphinha with Lewandowski

Reigning world champion, Lamine Yamal compared Brazilian forward Raphinha with Polish international Robert Lewandowski.

At the start of this season, Lamine Yamal has been particularly close with Raphinha. Spain's world champion Lamine Yamal refuses to engage in comparisons. The FC Barcelona winger values the Brazilian's qualities as a centre-forward just as much as those of his former teammate Robert Lewandowski.

"I don't think the question is who is better. The team adapts to different players, and each player has different qualities. Robert, for example, stands out for his ability to finish moves, whereas Raphinha is a great passer. Each of them has their own strengths and skills, and each stands out for what they do," the Spaniard told ON Sport.
