Lamine Yamal, the 18-year-old Barcelona prodigy, received the La Liga Player of the Month award for November after a series of outstanding performances featuring 3 goals and 3 assists.
Young talent Lamine Yamal is making all of Europe take notice. The 18-year-old Barcelona star was recently awarded La Liga’s Player of the Month for November 2025, after a streak of brilliant matches that helped the Catalan club secure full points throughout the month.
In four La Liga games during November, Yamal scored 3 goals and provided 3 assists, playing a crucial role in victories over Elche, Celta Vigo, Athletic Bilbao, and Deportivo Alaves. In each match, he made a significant impact: from two assists on Barcelona’s return to Camp Nou, to a standout performance with a goal and an assist in the win against Alaves.
After struggling with injury early in the season, Yamal has returned stronger than ever. His brilliant form in November helped him surpass stars like Antoine Griezmann, Jude Bellingham, and Kylian Mbappé to win the prestigious La Liga vote. Overall, Yamal has now recorded 8 assists since the start of the season — an impressive number for a teenage player.
Beyond the numbers, Yamal inspires the entire team. His excellent performances have been a key factor in Barcelona reclaiming the top spot in La Liga after 15 rounds, easing worries following the October El Clasico defeat.
Coach Hansi Flick highly praised his young protégé: “Yamal is showing remarkable maturity. He not only scores goals but also boosts his teammates’ confidence. He is the model of a top player.”
With his speed, technique, and ability to create chances, Yamal is seen as Barcelona’s new precious gem who could continue the legacy left by Lionel Messi. As the team faces a challenging period with matches against Real Betis and Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League, Yamal’s form will remain a crucial key for Hansi Flick’s squad’s pursuit of success.
