Subsequent Up: Maradona, Messi and now Yamal

Yamal’s ‘gigantic step’ at La Masia

Earlier than he was fast-tracked into Barcelona’s first group and the Spanish nationwide facet, Yamal needed to conquer the soar from cadete to juvenil within the membership’s La Masia academy.

“A gigantic step,” is how Oscar Lopez, a former Barcelona participant himself who has spent the final three years as coach of Barcelona’s Juvenil A facet, or U19s, places it to Sky Sports activities.

Yamal, a Barcelona participant since he was seven, had already been recognized as a rising star. However at 15, and already enjoying up an age group, a lot would rely upon how he dealt with his promotion from the U16s to the U19s at the beginning of the 2022/23 season.

“That year was a very good process that I had to take him through in terms of acclimatisation to the age group, to the level, to the demands,” says Lopez.

“Because it’s not the same playing as a cadete for the U16s, even if you are playing up a year, as he was, to being 15 years old and playing against boys of 20 in the UEFA Youth League.

“So, we had to do a process of adaptation with him in which he saw that everything is progressive and has its evolution, and that he needed time to acclimatise, even though he had that innate talent that he is demonstrating right now at the Euros.”

Yamal had breezed by way of all ages group to that time in La Masia.

This time, it was completely different.

“The process covered many different aspects, mentally, emotionally and physically,” provides Lopez. “He was a 15-year-old boy playing against boys five years older.

“On an emotional level, all of that could have broken him.”

It didn’t, in fact. The truth is, it made him stronger. However Yamal acquired no particular therapy from Lopez, who was tasked with guaranteeing he produced utility to match his expertise.

“On the pitch, he progressively got more minutes, but that was a result of having to work hard, not because he was 15 and everyone was saying he was a very good player,” explains Lopez. “He had to earn those minutes.

“So, for a couple of months, he was coming in, he was working, he was training, he was getting his minutes. But he was also seeing that he was just another player in a squad where there were kids who were three or four years older than him.

“He was seeing that he had to wake up, liven himself up and make a real effort to earning a starting spot. He was showing his talent but, little by little, he was also gaining that ability to overcome, to grow, and to improve the innate ability that he had.”
