Several soccer stars have received it many times, but Lamine&#8217;s case is attracting attention. <\/p>\n<p>The 18-year-old had previously achieved this honor in November and December last year, but with his third win of the season, he now holds the record that neither Lionel Messi nor Karim Benzema have achieved.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the Argentine has won the award twice in the same season: 2018-2019 and 2019-2020. Benzema in 2021-2022. Antoine Griezmann in 2014-2015 and 2016-2017. Kylian Mbop won the award in September and October this season, but no player has ever won the award three times.<\/p>\n<p>In April, Yamal scored two goals and provided two assists, with his performance outstanding in the 2-1 win over Atl\u00f3tico Madrid. Therefore, his achievements are notable not only for the number of awards, but also for the age at which he received them. No player has ever shown so much consistency at such a young age. <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, his influence was key to keeping Barcelona in the title race (first place with 85 points) and cementing his status as one of the biggest stars in world football. However, on Wednesday, April 22, during a 1-0 win against Celta de Vigo at the Spotify Camp Nou, Lamine felt uncomfortable and had to leave the field. <\/p>\n<p>The young player is expected to be fit to represent Spain at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, although it has been confirmed that he has sustained a hamstring injury in his left foot, which will keep him out for the rest of the season along with Barra.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marca.com\/en\/football\/spanish-football\/2026\/04\/26\/69ee4ba2ca47411a648b458b.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lamine Yamal continues to break the mold.
