‘Almost inhuman’ - Alessandro Nesta goes crazy for Barcelona star Lamine Yamal

Alessandro Nesta knows a thing or two about defending and also what it’s like to take on some of the greatest attackers to have graced the game.

The Italy legend, who won all the biggest honors in the game with AC Milan and Lazio as well as lifting the World Cup with the Azzurri, has now been talking about Lamine Yamal and has not held back with his praise.

“How old is Lamine Yamal? 17. He won the Euro. He is special — he’s not someone to compare with others because he’s something extraordinary, almost inhuman,” he told Tuttosport.
