Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has on Sunday been afforded the responsibility of an altogether iconic shirt number on the international stage.
This comes amid confirmation of the 19-year-old being handed the no.10 for Spain’s showdown with England.
Wide-man Lamine was for his part forced to sit out earlier this week, as Spain got their Nations League campaign back up and running with a victory over Czechia.
After suffering a minor fitness setback, the youngster was granted permission to continue his recovery efforts under the watch of the Barcelona medical staff.
After being cleared for action for this evening, though, Lamine has been thrown straight back into a starting role. Not only that, but his latest appearance for Spain will be marked by a special detail.
With Barcelona teammate Dani Olmo absent through an injury of his own, Lamine has been handed La Roja’s no.10 jersey to face England in Madrid:
