Barcelona’s young star, Lamine Yamal, has expressed gratitude to former manager Xavi for giving him the chance to begin his journey with the senior team. Yamal shared his appreciation after helping Barcelona secure the 2024/25 La Liga title with a 2-0 victory over Espanyol, where he and Fermin Lopez each found the back of the net.

Reflecting on his breakthrough, the 17-year-old said the title win wouldn’t have been possible without Xavi’s trust in young talent. “I want to thank Xavi. None of this would have happened without him,” Yamal said after the game. “He believed in us and gave us the chance to step onto the big stage.”

He added that he remains deeply grateful for Xavi’s role in shaping his path. Xavi, a legendary figure at Barcelona both as a player and coach, had previously handed Yamal his first-team debut before stepping down from his role.
