Real Mallorca manager, Javier Aguirre has come out to liken Barcelona wonderkid, Lamine Yamal to a rat. He recently revealed this while drawing parallels with Lionel Messi, and fans have been reacting.

Javier added that if Yamal continues like he is presently doing, he’ll be a hit at Barca.
His words, “I saw Messi when he was with the Barça youth team. I saw him for five minutes and he was a rat, he didn’t stop scoring goals. This scoundrel also looks like a rat. He’s young, they work well with young people here and if he continues like this he’ll give many more joys at Barça”.
