Barcelona forward, Lamine Yamal has come out to say that he will not complete his schooling if Spain wins the Euro 2024 tournament. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, his school has already assigned him homework and assignments for the duration of the European Championship in Germany, but returning would be hard for him if Spain emerge winners of the tournament.
Yamal added that he intends to immediately go on vacation as soon as his country wins the cup.
His words, “How many hours do I study? Well, since we have a lot of free time, it’s not something that I put in and say: ‘Today at least two hours’, when I’m in the room with nothing to do, I take the iPad and do a couple of homework, and when Nico or Fermín call me to play PlayStation, I go down with them.
Do I have to take exams? No, with the iPad, I see what they send me, I print it and do it.
What about my grades? I guess they will send them to me online because it depends on how far we go in the Euro Cup, which I hope will be very far away because I won’t be going back to class anymore. So, if we reach the final, I won’t come back, I’ll go directly on vacation.”
On being the youngest player at the tournament, “Does it scare me? No, in the end, it’s one more piece of information. It doesn’t scare me, I play the same. I try to focus on playing well and I think in the end it only helps me because when I do something well it will be magnified because of my age, obviously. I think it only helps me.”
WOW.
