Lamine Yamal Nears Mbappe's Record

Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal scored in the La Liga match against Villarreal (2-0). The young Spanish player found the back of the net in the 63rd minute, setting the final score of the match.

Yamal's career goals in La Liga have now reached 21. This figure is the second-highest among players aged 18 or younger in Europe's top five leagues since the beginning of the 21st century.

The only player with more goals before turning 19 is Kylian Mbappe, who scored 23 goals in Ligue 1. If Yamal scores three more goals this season in the Spanish championship, he will break the French forward's record.

In the 2025/26 La Liga season, Yamal has played 14 matches, scoring seven goals and providing eight assists. Read “Zamin” on Telegram!
