Lamine Yamal Takes Messi’s No. 10 Shirt and Says It’s Now His Time
Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal has shared his thoughts after officially taking over the iconic number 10 jersey, once worn by club legend Lionel Messi. The young Spanish star made the remarks on Wednesday following the signing of a new long-term contract that ties him to the club until 2031.
During a special presentation led by club president Joan Laporta, Yamal expressed his pride in carrying on a legacy worn by greats like Messi, Ronaldinho, and Maradona.
“Messi laid the foundation with this shirt,” he said. “Now it’s my time. Every kid dreams of having something from players like Messi and Ronaldinho. I’ll do my best to keep that legacy going.” He also made it clear that he’s not feeling any pressure. “It’s just a new number,” he said, “but my goal remains the same.”
Former footballer Paul Scholes condemns Martin Odegaard and speaks on his performance in the Arsenal team.
The football legend shared how it is the captain that is bringing the team down, as he is not playing his position properly “That game on Saturday [Arsenal vs Newcastle], I didn’t see all of it, I probably saw the first half an hour, but I think Odegaard is a big problem for them.”
“I love Odegaard, I think he’s brilliant. Technically, he’s great, but he doesn’t play his position properly. Half the time I saw him in the first 20 minutes, he was almost the deepest man.”
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
