With his insanely high stats at the age of 15, Lamine Yamal is undoubtedly Football Manager 2024’s best wonderkid.
Though many won’t be surprised, we’ll say it nonetheless. Lamine Yamal of Barcelona may turn out to be one of Football Manager’s greatest wonderkids ever.
Since becoming Barcelona’s youngest player ever at the age of 15 years, 9 months, and 16 days, the highly-rated winger, who was born in 2007, has been shattering records left, right, and center.
Following consistent play under Xavi, Yamal created additional history in a 7-1 victory by becoming Spain’s youngest goalscorer ever.
A few weeks later, he surpassed Celestine Babayaro to become the youngest player to start a Champions League game, at 16 years and 83 days.
The teenager’s past few months have been extremely busy, and the folks at Sports Interactive have recently given him some pretty absurd statistics.
Lamal, who is just 15 years old when you begin your FM24 save, has 19 flair in the new game, which is a feature that a lot of people will find impressive.
Given his 16-year-old tenacity and “resilient” personality, the Spaniard will only get better.
Lamal has a very high flair stat along with 15 dribbling, 15 first touch, 16 technique, and 16 agility, not to mention some very decent mentals.
Maybe the greatest wonderkid ever?
View his complete set of stats below.
This is how Lamal’s statistics were received on social media.
A fan remarked, “Only £20-26m that’s literally everyone’s first deal when they start a save with a semi big club,” while another said, “Quite possibly the best wonderkid I have ever seen on FM.”.
Develop endurance and technical skills, you have beast right there.
Another commented, “He’s already one of the best dribblers in Europe so it makes sense.” A third person said as much.
The teenager won’t be able to make his highly anticipated debut on EA Sports FC 24 right away, even though he appeared on the most recent Football Manager.
All players must be at least 17 years old in order to be added to the game.
Before Yamal can use himself in the Ultimate Team and Career Mode game modes on EA FC 24, he will need to wait until July 13, 2024.
For the same reason, Ansu Fati, a forward for Barcelona who is currently on loan at Brighton in the Premier League, was excluded from FIFA 20.
