Today, Barcelona’s young striker Lamine Yamal officially successfully signed a contract with German sports giant Adidas. This is a long-term contract and has just been announced.

Revealing the reason for signing with Adidas, Yamal said that Messi was the person who greatly influenced his decision: “I am proud to join Adidas because they are always the best brand. Growing up, I idolized Leo Messi, who has been with Adidas since I first watched football. I look forward to the next years being explosive with Adidas.”

Yamal seems to be on the same course as Messi’s career. El Pulga had also previously rejected Nike to sign with Adidas in 2006. The difference was probably that the Argentine striker was older at that time – signing at the age of 19.

However, that certainly does not affect Messi’s great career when he made history with admirable titles. Even now, the giant German sports company still favors Messi by designing his own set of shoes with many eye-catching designs, as well as the most advanced technology.
