Yamal rates Liverpool as Barca's biggest Champions League threat

Barcelona's young star Lamine Yamal has made it clear that the Azulgrana team is aiming to win everything this season. In an interview with Mundo Deportivo, the 17-year-old striker expressed his confidence in Barca's potential, stating: “I think we have to think that we are the best and that we are the ones who play the best, and I believe we are”.

Yamal did not hesitate to point out that the lead in La Liga is not a coincidence, but the result of the team's good play. When asked about which title he sees more achievable to win, the young crack responded with ambition: “If it can be both (La Liga and Champions League), both. I have no preference.

However, Yamal acknowledged that in the Champions League there is a rival that starts with an advantage: “There is only one team in the Champions League that is more favorite than us, which is Liverpool, because they finished first”.

Despite this, the Cule youth product was optimistic about Barca's chances in all competitions, assuring that “everything depends on us”. Yamal concluded the interview with a statement that sums up the spirit of the team at this point in the season: “It's winning, winning and when you win you go through the rounds and you see it getting easier and easier”.
