UEFA president says he would sign Barca player ‘if I have money’ — tips him to win Ballon d’Or soon

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has been singing Lamine Yamal’s praises to the high heavens.

“if I had a club, he [Lamine Yamal] would be the first player I would buy if I had enough money,” Ceferin told reporters.

“For me he is the best young player in the world and could very soon be the best in the world in general,” Ceferin adds.

Ceferin went on to rate Spain quite highly at the Euros.

“Spain is a very good team, I already said that for me they are one of the favorites at the Euro,” the UEFA boss said.

Yamal has become one of Spain’s propelling force at the Euros in Germany with the youngster already bagging an assist in La Roja’s first game — a 3-0 win against Croatia.
