I'm a Lamine Yamal type of player - Ghana's Abdul Aziz after completing Barcelona move

Ghanaian winger Abdul Aziz Issah has drawn comparisons between his playstyle and that of Barcelona’s rising star, Lamine Yamal, following his recent transfer to the Spanish giants.

Issah, who has joined Barcelona on a one-season deal with an option to buy, made the statement during his unveiling alongside fellow Ghanaian David Oduro.

Issah’s move to Barcelona comes after an impressive season with Dreams FC, particularly in the CAF Confederation Cup.

Reflecting on his new chapter, the 19-year-old expressed his excitement and gratitude for the opportunity to join the club he has admired since childhood.

"It’s a great feeling and a massive joy for me. I have been supporting this club for a very long time since childhood and me being here, me being part of this club, I am very grateful for my management, for my team, for the work they have done, everything, I am very grateful. And I can’t wait to get started," Issah said.

"I describe myself as a Lamine Yamal type of player. Left-footed, who likes shooting, and attacking. Yes, that’s how Aziz is," Issah added.

His comparison highlights his confidence and ambition as he prepares to make his mark with Barcelona B, aiming to catch the eye of first-team manager Hansi Flick.
