Gerrard advises Lamine Yamal to stay at Barcelona

Steven Gerrard advised Lamine Yamal not to consider leaving Barcelona, saying that staying with the Catalan club gives the player the chance to compete for major trophies and play in front of large crowds, while maintaining his place in the Spain national team.

Gerrard pointed to Barcelona’s challenges for the Spanish league and the Champions League, and said its matches attract crowds that can reach 100 thousand fans a week. He believes that, together with Yamal’s role in the team and his international standing, these opportunities make staying an option worth considering, despite the possibility that other clubs may be interested in him.
