Watch as Lamine Yamal, 17, stars alongside Ronaldinho and Barcelona legends in incredible new kit advert
RISING STAR Lamine Yamal has starred alongside Ronaldinho and a whole host of Barcelona stars to promote the club’s new kit.
An incredible advert for the new home shirt was jam-packed full of familiar faces.
Yamal, 17, is quickly becoming the face of Barcelona as he continues to astonish the football world with his staggering ability at such a young age.
And the club’s new campaign is no different with the teenager sharing the stage with some of the club’s greatest ever players.
The promotional clip starts with Brazil and Barca legend Ronaldinho looking straight down the camera and saying: “Let’s play”.
Before Yamal and teammate Raphinha are both filmed juggling the ball with a backdrop of Brazilian flags and club crests.
The list of former icons featured in the video doesn’t stop there either with Andres Iniesta and Carles Puyol also making a cameo.
And current stars haven’t shied away from the camera either.
Pedri, Robert Lewandowski, and Gavi amongst a whole host of featured players.

Barcelona have harked back to their first ever kit for the inspiration for their newest home strip.
With this season marking 125 years of the Catalan giants, Barcelona and Nike have made a kit that splits the iconic blue and red in two rather than their usual striped look.
The design is one that was used in the club’s first ever kit, over a century ago, as well as being chosen for the 2006/07 and 2008/09 kits.
Yamal won’t just be sporting a new kit for Barcelona next season, but also a new number.
The teen sensation has ditched the number 27 and will instead wear the number 19 from next season.
The new number has had fans thinking his career is “scripted” with the number 19 also worn by Lionel Messi during his early days at the Nou Camp.
Yamal has already been compared to Messi after photos emerged of the winger being bathed by the Argentina superstar when he was just a baby as part of a charity photoshoot.
Yamal is certainly getting off to the right start if he does want to follow in the footsteps of the great Lionel Messi.
The youngster was a standout star at Euro 2024 this summer, registering five goal contributions in Germany.
And his efforts won him the Young Player of the Tournament award as well as lifting the trophy itself with Spain.
While he also smashed the record for youngest goalscorer in Euros history and became the youngest player to ever start a major international final.
