Barcelona whiz Lamine Yamal has insisted that Spain should not be regarded as small and inexperienced at the ongoing Euro 2024.

He stated this on the backdrop of a comment made by former Arsenal goalkeeper Jens Lehmann about the Spain current squad.

Ahead of Friday’s Euros quarterfinal, Lehmann branded Spain “small” and as a “youth team.”.

In response, Spain winger Yamal said, “It is his opinion; what is he going to tell you? He is German. Trying to destabilize us a little. We do not listen to anyone; we will demonstrate who we are.

“More than helping Germany, it helps us. Let’s see if we are small and inexperienced.”

Asked about playing with Nico Williams at Barcelona, he added: “Anyone who is your friend you would like  to be on your team. Hopefully… We have common tastes, we have similar positions, a similar style. There is a very good vibe.”
