As Barcelona gear up for their high-stakes UEFA Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain, teenage sensation Lamine Yamal has made it clear that he feels no pressure going into one of the biggest games of the season.
The young forward recently returned to action after battling discomfort, an issue that became worse during the demanding international break with Spain.
Having missed five consecutive matches for Barça, Yamal finally made his comeback this past weekend against Real Sociedad.
Coming off the bench with half an hour left to play, he changed the game instantly. His dazzling run and assist set up Robert Lewandowski’s decisive goal, sealing a dramatic 2-1 comeback win for Hansi Flick’s side.
Now, after a full week of training with the squad, Yamal is fully fit and ready to take on the reigning European champions.

Reports confirm that the 18-year-old is prepared to play the full 90 minutes if called upon, providing Barcelona with much-needed creativity and spark in attack.
Yamal’s defiant Instagram message
In the build-up to the clash, Yamal took to social media to send a fiery message to PSG.
On his official Instagram, he shared a montage inspired by the film Pact with the Devil, including a famous scene from Al Pacino:
“Pressure changes everything. To some people on the edge, they respond; other times, they fail. Can you use all your talent instantly, work against the clock and sleep peacefully?”
The clip ends with Yamal’s own bold declaration, “I’m back, and the mission is also back.”
The teenager’s fearless mindset mirrors the belief inside the Barcelona camp. While the task of overcoming Luis Enrique’s PSG will not be easy, Yamal’s return could prove decisive.
