That recognition continues. The former German player has now discovered similar characteristics in each player&#8217;s level and concluded that the Spaniard is a clone of &#8220;La Pulga&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Former Germany international and Aston Villa midfielder Thomas Hitzlsperger was surprised by Yamal&#8217;s move for Torres&#8217; goal. His brush strokes were enough to make me see in him an outstanding talent that was different from others.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote\">\n<p>Assisted Ferran Torres with the outside of his left foot. This pass from Lamine Yamal is special on another level. Passing is already impressive, but to eliminate defenders, you can turn and send the ball with the right rhythm, tearing defenders apart and timing them accurately.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote-author\">Thomas Hitzlsperger &#8211; German former soccer player<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Mr. Hitzlsperger goes further. He is so fascinated by Yamal&#8217;s wits, movements and timing that he claims he sees Messi in the Spanish boy.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote\">\n<p>This is Leo Messi. To be honest, the way he moves in midfield, the way he passes, everything is perfect.

However, soccer insiders like Hitzlsperger did not overlook Lamine&#8217;s performance as a playmaker. Like many other Germans, they paid attention to what preceded the goal: creation. His observations end with him recognizing a player who reminds him of Messi.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ue-c-article__subheadline\">Jordi Alba denigrates comparisons with Leo<\/h2>\n<p>Recently, the Inter Miami player gave an interview to El Larguero. There he expressed his dissatisfaction with the current comparison between Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal. For Spaniards, it&#8217;s a useless exercise that serves no purpose. To clarify his position on the matter, he said very frankly that the Argentine is unique and there is no one like him.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ue-c-article__blockquote\">\n<p>Comparing Ramin and Leo&#8230; there is no comparison.
