"He is a special player"- Mohammed Salisu heaps praise of Barcelona teen Lamine Yamal

Ghana defender Mohammed Salisu has extolled the qualities of Spain and Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal. The AS Monaco centre-back faced the European Championship winner for the first time on Monday evening as the French outfit hammered Barcelona 3-0 to win the Joan Gamper Trophy.Yamal was a second-half substitute and could not stop his side from going down as Salisu matched him boot-for-boot at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys.“He had a great season and then he did very well at the Euros. I think he is a special player," the former Real Valladolid defender told Mundo Deportivo.Salisu believes the 17-year-old forward will go on and have a great career following his explosiveness.“Yes, I think everyone was surprised because he is a young player. He is 16-17 years old and at that age, when you play this kind of football, it is a bit of a surprise for everyone. I think he has a great future and he is a great player," he added.
