Young star Lamine Yamal made his way back to the pitch, starting on the bench during Barcelona’s match against Las Palmas. While he didn’t start the game, he caught everyone’s attention with a unique detail on his boots.

The Blaugrana player was spotted by cameras, and eagle-eyed fans noticed the word “Messi” written on the soles of his boots. This detail has a special connection to the team chosen by the Argentine legend himself to wear his signature cleats.

The “Messi +10” Boots

The boots are part of a campaign by a major sportswear brand titled “Messi +10”. In this initiative, Lionel Messi selected ten players—both men and women—to showcase a new model of cleats he will also wear.

Among the chosen players are two promising talents from FC Barcelona: Lamine Yamal, a standout from the men’s first team, and Vicky López, a rising star from the women’s first team.

In a promotional video, Messi unveiled the names of the ten selected athletes, saving Lamine Yamal’s announcement for last to emphasize his role as the campaign’s centerpiece.
