The young winger has consistently showcased his extraordinary talent, earning accolades and setting records for Barcelona and the Spanish national team. On Saturday, he became the youngest player to start in the European Championship history, surpassing the previous record set by Poland’s Kacper Kozlowski, who debuted in Euro 2020 at 17 years and 246 days.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Yamal's journey to the top has been meteoric. Since making his debut for Barcelona, he has broken numerous records, including being the youngest scorer for the club. He is also the youngest to<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/barcelona-prodigy-lamine-yamal-chelsea-champions-league-record/blt3cb03bdee77dc185" target="_blank"> start a Champions League game</a> and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/lamine-yamal-history-again-barcelona-wonderkid-breaks-champions-league-record-la-masia-graduate/blt8dd5d40c3778b5e9#csa3ef75c8ed965834" target="_blank">contribute to a goal,</a> albeit on two different occasions. For Spain, he has two goals and four assists since his debut in September 2023.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Yamal holds the record for being the youngest scorer in the La Liga, Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup. At <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/barcelona-lamine-yamal-youngest-goalscorer-la-liga-history/blt4861b01333cb2ab5" target="_blank">16 years and 87 days, </a>he scored in the league against Granada to displace Malaga's Fabrice Olinga from the top spot.

DID YOU KNOW?

As Yamal takes to the field, all eyes will be on him to see if he can set yet another record by becoming the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/jude-bellingham-youngest-player-at-the-euros-youngsters/1varplj9y30zx1sst7xx680eql" target="_blank">youngest goalscorer in the history of the European Championship</a>. The current record is held by England's Jude Bellingham, who scored in Euro 2020 at the age of 18 years and four days. Given Yamal's track record and his knack for rising to the occasion, it wouldn’t be surprising to see him achieve this feat.
