Barcelona star Lamine Yamal is set to follow in the footsteps of Lionel Messi and Jude Bellingham and become Adidas’ ‘signature player’.
This amazing youngster has broken into the international game by breaking many records at the age of 17. Yamal made his Barca debut for the La Liga giants at the age of 15 and has proven himself as a performer with Champions League and European Championship honours.
According to Footy Headlines, Yamal is set to join eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi, Real Madrid superstar Bellingham and Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah in their “signature” squad. ” – he can have his own brand and choice of shoes.
In February 2024, Adidas rejected an offer from rival Nike for a long-term deal with Yamal. His fortunes have continued to rise ever since, with the youngster playing for Barcelona and Spain while making his way onto the prestigious Ballon d’Or list.
Yamal will now collaborate with Adidas to create his own brand, which is said to be working on his own collection. There’s a good chance he’ll one day succeed the La Masia-schooled Messi as a key spokesperson for Adidas’ speedy boots – with mass appeal going in the same direction.
