<p>The 17-year-old returned to the bench upon his return from an ankle injury for Saturday's match in La Liga and fans spotted he was wearing special boots with "Messi" written on them. Yamal is one of 10 players selected by Argentina and former Barcelona star Messi to wear as part of Adidas' <em>Messi +10</em> campaign.</p><p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Yamal has the name of his idol Messi written underneath his boots 🥹👟 <a href="https://t.co/3Wn03oZgbS">pic.twitter.com/3Wn03oZgbS</a></p>— 433 (@433) <a href="https://twitter.com/433/status/1862883100755165369?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 30, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Yamal had been out of action for almost three weeks and came off the bench at half-time as the Catalan side <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/barcelona-player-ratings-vs-las-palmas-robert-lewandowski-raphinha-lamine-yamal/bltfd0afba577d582c2" target="_blank">suffered a surprise 2-1 defeat against relegation candidates Las Palmas</a>. They have now collected one point from their last three league matches.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Hansi Flick's side <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/barcelona-one-man-team-shocking-stat-17-year-old-lamine-yamal-hansi-flick-la-liga/blt1bdb2e17410c021c" target="_blank">have fared much better with Yamal in the team</a>, as the Spain international has scored five goals and made seven assists in La Liga this season. Before Saturday's loss, they had been beaten just once with him in the team.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Yamal will hope his Messi boots inspire some magic when his team come up against Mallorca in La Liga on Tuesday.</p>
