Lamine Yamal believes FC Barcelona is the best team in the world

FC Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal revealed ahead of El Clasico that he and his teammates believe the Blaugrana are the “best team in the world” after facing Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday night defeated 4-1.

The 17-year-old put in another outstanding performance at the Montjuic Stadium, regularly beating a man many consider to be the best left-back in the world in Alphonso Davies, and Raphinha completed his team’s trick with a stunning assist in the second half .

With Barca sitting three points clear of their arch-rivals at the top of La Liga, Lamine was asked after the game about hosting Saturday’s Clasico at the Bernabeu, which could prove crucial to winning the Spanish top flight title in May.

Despite Bayern being described by the local press as the “ogres” and Catalans’ bogeyman in Europe, Lamine revealed that “we were already feeling very confident before this game”.

“We believe we are the best team in the world and I think we are proving it. We will continue with all our might and may the best team win,” he continued, as Los Blancos themselves came away with a 5-2 victory over Bayern’s main domestic opponents, Borussia Dortmund, earlier this week.

Lamine emphasized that it was “very important to beat Bayern 4-1 in a very important week.”

“We are doing very well this season, but we are always afraid of what will happen in the Champions League. We are a great team and we showed that,” he affirmed.

To shift the focus away from himself, Lamine highlighted the strong midfield performances of Pedri – said to be in the best moment of his career – and Marc Casado.

“And of course Rapha for his hat trick. I? by manager Hansi Flick for Ansu Fati.

In the Spanish capital on Saturday, Lamine is guaranteed to be a regular on the right wing and cause a lot of trouble for Carlo Ancelotti’s men and especially Ferland Mendy.
