Barcelona's youth academy La Masia is a place where talent is constantly being produced that has reached the very top of the football elite, such as Andres Iniesta, Xavi Hernandez, Sergio Busquets, Gerard Pique and Carles Pujol.
The new generation that emerged from ‘La Masia’ last year is set to be one of the best in terms of projection, with Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsi being the two players who have most established themselves in the Barcelona first team.
In fact, Lamine Yamal is already rubbing shoulders with the best players in the world and the ‘Cules’ centre-back believes that the Spanish winger could be awarded as the best in the world in the future as he sees great potential in him.
"Lamine Yamal can win the Ballon d’Or. Everyone now sees who Lamine is, but I've known him for a long time. He has the skill set required to achieve it," he told 'RAC1'. "Can he dribble past me in training? We don't face each other often in training, but when we do, sometimes I stop him and sometimes he dribbles past me," he added.
