Raphinha has lauded his Barcelona teammate Lamine Yamal as the kid with the “golden feet” after the club secured their 28th La Liga title on Thursday, Afrosport reports.
Yamal scored a spectacular goal before assisting Fermin Lopez to hand the Blaugrana a 2-0 win over Catalan rivals Espanyol.
It took 17-year-old Yamal to eight goals and 15 assists in the league while he has a total of 17 goals and 25 assists in all competitions.
“We didn’t have many clear chances but we have a kid in there who sometimes pulls something out of the golden feet he has and he gave us peace of mind to stay in the game more calmly,” Raphinha said.

“In January some people were saying we would fight to be third. We have confidence in ourselves. That’s the key. We trust in the work and in what we know we can do.”
Barcelona’s La Liga triumph has seen them complete the domestic treble after winning the Supercopa de Espana and Copa del Rey.
