Yamal stardust could give Barca edge on Inter Milan

Lamine Yamal plays during the match between FC Barcelona and RCD Mallorca, corresponding to week 33 of LaLiga EA Sports, at the Lluis Companys Stadium in Barcelona, Spain, on April 22, 2025. Barcelona last reached the Champions League final a decade ago, with Lionel Messi as their torch-bearer. Now the Catalan giants rely on another generational talent in Lamine Yamal as their 'X-factor' when they host Inter Milan on Wednesday in a semi-final first leg clash. At the peak of his powers Messi scored two brilliant goals in the 2015 semi first leg against Bayern Munich on the way to the treble, and while Yamal, 17, is still honing his finishing, he holds the key to the team's potential success this season.

SEVILLA, SPAIN - MARCH 01: Arda Guler of Real Madrid in action during the Spanish league, LaLiga EA Sports, football match played between Real Betis and Real Madrid at Benito Villamarin stadium on March 1, 2025, in Sevilla, Spain.

The presence of Hakan Calhanoglu would fast-track his integration within the Nerazzurri. He’s more offensive-minded than Nico Paz, but the brass is on the lookout for a forward since Marko Arnautovic and Joaquin Correa will be out of contract soon....
