"I don't like comparisons. It's always nice to have rivals with the level of Lamine Yamal or Barça or the Spanish national team."
"It's always a motivation and hopefully it will be like that for a long time."
"Today, Lamine is better. He is showing an incredible level, he is in an incredible moment. I just arrived in Madrid, I'm in a process of adaptation that I hope will be quick. I hope I can pick up the rhythm of Europe soon and that it will be a long story to tell and with many games."
Lamine Yamal rose rapidly at Barcelona, exhibiting uncommon maturity for a teenager. Real Madrid signed Argentinian prospect Franco Mastantuono as a comparable young talent. Mastantuono calls Yamal a rival, sees Yamal's success as motivation, and resists direct comparisons. He candidly admits that Yamal is currently superior and is performing at an incredible level. Mastantuono says he has just arrived in Madrid and is in a process of adaptation, hoping to quickly pick up the European rhythm. He expresses confidence that his best version is still to come and anticipates a long career with many games.
