In the 2023/24 campaign, Yamal was on a record-breaking spree for both club and country, and this has continued in the UEFA European Championship currently happening in Germany.

Not only is the 16-year-old the youngest player ever to play a match at the continental showpiece, but he also became the youngest-ever player to provide an assist in the tournament's history during Spain's 3-0 victory Croatia.

He has been causing problems for opposition defence on the Spanish right flank, but on the opposite side of La Furia Roja's attack, another young star has also been wreaking havoc.

Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams has been showcasing his talents at the EUROs too, and it was his cross that led to Riccardo Calafiori's own goal in Spain's 1-0 victory over Italy on Thursday night.

With the Pamplona native having been linked with a move to Barca in this transfer window, Yamal has claimed that if the Catalan giants can get a deal done, he would strongly advocate for Williams' arrival at the Camp Nou.

"Nico is a great player and I hope to be able to share a dressing room with him," the La Masia alumni told Cadena SER.

""Of course, I think he should decide. We get along really well. Since the first call, he has been like that and he is another friend here.

"He is one of those wingers who confront you, who beat you with speed. He has audacity, can overwhelm anyone, and that helps any team.

"If I could, I would sign him."
