Lamine Yamal believes that FC Barcelona is the best team in the world

FC Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal revealed that he and his teammates believe the Blaugrana are the “best team in the world” ahead of El Clásico after beating Bayern Munich 4-1 in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

The 17-year-old was once again sublime at the Montjuic Stadium, where he routinely got the better of Alphonso Davies against a figure many considered the best left-back in the world, and provided Raphinha with a stunning assist to complete his cap. trick in the second half.

With Barca now three points clear of their bitter rivals, Lamine was asked after the match about Saturday’s El Clasico at the Bernabeu, which could ultimately prove to be the key to whoever claims the Spanish top-flight title in May.

Despite Bayern being described by the local press as the “bogeyman” and bogeyman of the Catalans in Europe, Lamine revealed how “we already had a lot of confidence before this match”.

“We believe we are the best team in the world, and I think we prove it. We will go with all our strength and may the best team win,” he further stated, as Los Blancos themselves won 5-2. victory over Bayern’s main domestic foe Borussia Dortmund earlier this week.

Lamine emphasized that it was “very important to beat Bayern 4-1 in a very important week”.

Lamine wanted to take the focus away from himself and highlighted the strong performances in midfield from Pedri – reportedly at the best moment of his career – and Marc Casado.

Lamine will therefore be guaranteed to be a starter on the right flank on Saturday in the Spanish capital, causing all kinds of trouble for Carlo Ancelotti’s men and Ferland Mendy in particular.
