    Lamine Yamal of Barcelona on the Laliga title: “Just the Start”

    Lamine Yamal said winning more wins won his mind, which was all the thoughts he had helped Barcelona encapsulate the Laliga title on Thursday to complete the domestic high notes.

    Yamal, 17, scored a goal, an excellent left-foot strike as Barcelona beat city rival Espanyol 2-0 and took Real Madrid in just two games at a distance of 7 points.

    Barcelona has won the Del Rey and the Spanish Super Championship this season, beating Madrid in two finals, and the league has won three trophies in the first year of coach Hansi Flick.

    Yamal told ESPN after winning his second league title at the club that he introduced “it’s a dream come true,” Yamal told ESPN.

    “It’s incredible to win Laliga with Barcelona, ​​but it’s just the beginning of what we want to achieve. The message to supporters is that this is just a starter.

    “It is impossible to win. I thought about it forever.”

    Yamal will only turn 18 in July, but has built an impressive collection of silverware.

    In addition to the four trophys he won at Barcelona, ​​he also won the European Championship with Spain last summer, with the Champions League and the World Cup being the only major silverware missing.

    With 17 goals and 25 assists this season, his performances are compared with Lionel Messi, Neymar and Ronaldinho, but he focuses on writing his own story.

    “The goal is to achieve your own success,” he added. “I want to be myself, write my own story and be my own player.

    “I don't look at other players. Of course, I want to succeed, Messi is incredible to me, but I want to have my own career.”

    In another interview, Yamal also paid tribute to former coach Xavi Hernández, who was replaced by Flick last summer but made their debut only after handing it to the teenager and 18-year-old centre-back Pau Cubarsí.

    Yamal told Barcelona One, “We are really grateful to Xavi because without him, none of this would have happened.”

    “He is the one who makes his debut for so many young players, and we want to thank him.”

    Barcelona President Joan Laporta also said Yamal was one of the people he was selected after a successful role this season.

    “He is one of the few people who have a truly unique career in this game, assigned only to the best players of all time,” Lapota told reporters.

    “He has a natural talent. He is happy with Barcelona and has a project that surrounds him, like Ronaldinho and Messi, who he is in front of him. He is surrounded by great players.”

    Laporta also confirmed that Flick has reached an agreement to expand his contract with the club.

    The coach's current deal will expire in 2026, but sources told ESPN that he will write new terms that will put him in the position until at least 2027.

    “A big part of the success depends on him.” “He is very excited about the project we have here.

    “A loose deal was reached a few months ago. He will stay. (Sports Director) Deco put it together and it will be announced soon. He wants to go year by year.”

    Barcelona's championship celebrations swept through Friday morning after Espanyol won, and when they returned to the training ground after midnight, thousands of fans and fireworks players greeted the players.

    Later, midfielder Marc Casadó was found attending the celebration with fans in the city center, while Dani Olmo, Iñigo Martínez, Pedri and Eric García hopped the rental bike to celebrate the championship and celebrated the championship with Ferran Torres in the hospital.

    Torres, who scored 19 goals this season, missed the Espanyol game while still in hospital after appendectomy.

    The party will continue on Friday with an open bus parade scheduled to mark three trophies this year.

    Barcelona legend Jordi Alba now joins Miami Inter Miami CF for complimenting Flick's collaboration with young players and picking out Yamal's achievements.

    “If I remember correctly, when Lamin played against Betis at 15, he was a differential player,” Alba said Friday. “He has changed a lot in the two years since. He is a great player. He has won the championship only at that age. He is improving, learning, listening to people around him. I hope he is all right.”
