  WHAT RAPHINHA SAID

  Raphinha said: "He asked me if I was going to text Neymar, if he was going to reply. And I told him of course he's going to reply. I think with the level he's reached, he has access to anything he wants or anyone, even Neymar Jr. It's no coincidence the two of them were together."

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Yamal has scored 25 goals and assisted 34 since breaking into the Barcelona first team, emerging as arguably one of the best players on the planet aged just 17. He looks set to make at least as big a success of his Barca career as Neymar, who spent four years with the club between 2013-2017.
