Lamine Yamal has revealed a crucial message sent from his new Barcelona boss Hansi Flick ahead of the Euro 2024 final.
Ahead of a huge showdown with England on July 14, Lamine Yamal is preparing to turn 17 the day before, and planning to propel Spain to the title.
Luis de la Fuente has kept constant faith in him at the tournament and he is certain to start against England.
His equalising goal against France set the platform for a victory alongside another record broken as the youngest ever goal scorer in the competition’s history.
However, the goal did not come as a shock to Flick, who predicted it ahead of Spain facing Les Bleus.
“Being able to play in a European Championship and reach a final is incredible”, as per reports from Mundo Deportivo.

“The most important thing is to win and that’s what we all want.
“Flick sends us messages before and after games. He told me I would score before the France game. I’m happy have this relationship, even if it’s just via WhatsApp. He’ll probably write to me again before the final.”
With Barcelona back in preseason training, Flick is set to sanction breaks for players competing in the latter rounds of Euro 2024, ahead of a preseason tour of the USA at the end of July.
