Real Madrid fans are excited to bring Kylian Mbappé to the club this summer, and the French star seems excited to join as well. Mbappé is one of the best players in the world, and FC Barcelona fans are worried about his arrival, but they will respect him after he praises one of their players. Mbappé spoke highly about Lamine Yamal and said, “Lamine is the best talent in the world, without a doubt. The agility of the body and the movement he possesses is almost impossible for his age. I believe that he will be crowned the Golden Boy award this season, and as for me as the captain of France, I will give him my vote. I believe that the votes of all the captains will go to him because what he has done this season and at this age is extraordinary.”

Yamal and Mbappé faced off in the Champions League quarterfinals last month, but PSG advanced to the semi-finals. Yamal and FC Barcelona won the first leg 3-2 at the Parc des Princes in Paris. In the second leg, PSG defeated FC Barcelona 4-1 at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys, where Mbappé scored a brace.

Yamal seems to be the next exciting young football star; as he played, he made a total of 49 appearances in all competitions. He scored a total of seven goals and provided ten assists. In 36 La Liga matches, Yamal scored five goals and provided eight assists, where he started in 21 of them. Yamal seems the favorite to win the Golden Boy and the Kopa Trophy awards this year and could follow Mbappé's footsteps as he won it in 2018.

The last games for PSG and FC Barcelona this season

FC Barcelona and PSG have one more game to conclude the 2023/2024 season. Barcelona will go to Sevilla to play the last La Liga matchday at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. PSG will play in the Coupe De France Final against Lyon at the Decathlon Arena - Stade Pierre-Mauroy. Yamal and Mbappé are expected to play in the 2024 EUROS this summer in Germany with their national teams, Spain [Yamal] and France [Mbappé].
