A former FIFA World Cup winner has launched a scathing attack on Lamine Yamal, going as far as swearing at the Spanish wonderkid's mother.
Lamine Yamal is widely revered, as the FC Barcelona star is broadly considered to be among the best footballers on earth despite having just turned 18 this month.
The teenager has already made 100 appearances for Barça and has also won major tournaments such as La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the UEFA European Championship with Spain.

The winger is also believed to be a contender for the 2025 Ballon d'Or, which would make him the youngest ever winner of the prestigious prize.
However, it appears not everyone admires Lamine Yamal.
In fact, 2018 World Cup winner with France, Adil Rami, has bluntly stated that he despises Lamine Yamal as a person.
According to Instant Foot, Rami went on a scathing rant on Twitch, stating: "It's been two months, and as a human being, I can't stand him anymore. That's clear. I don't give a damn, guys. If some people are happy, unhappy, Barca fans, Lamine Yamal fans... I don't give a damn.
"I'm telling you the truth. Football-wise, I've got nothing to say. He's a cracker and he'll definitely win Ballons d'Or, European Cups and everything else you want. But as a human being, f*ck your mother. That's clear.
"The way he shook Cristiano Ronaldo's hand also annoyed me. That's how it started. I didn't like the videos he made afterwards where he talked about him.
"Seeing him doing his crazy thing with his shorts down, I taught you why guys do that and where it comes from. I'll say it again, the whole thing with the shorts down comes from prisons in the United States and Mexico, it was the guy who wanted to get 'fcked'. But there are things that bother me.
"He's throwing parties and people are already talking about them. Just wait, you son of a bitch. He shows up, takes the number 10 spot and puts on big bling with big diamonds. He thinks he's American. It's annoying."
