Lamine Yamal becomes Superman! Discover his new mural in Barcelona

Lamine Yamal turns 18 this Sunday and the Catalan urban artist 'TVBoy' has given him a beautiful mural in Barcelona. The painting titled 'Super Lamine' shows the Mataró native in a Superman suit and his characteristic blond-dyed hair, the 'look' he wore in the final stretch of the 2024/25 season.

The figure of the Barça player appears on a red wall on Escorial street in the Gràcia neighborhood and, instead of the 'S' that distinguishes the DC Comics character, the L of the footballer's name is distinguished.

In addition, the phrase 'When the obstacles will is are strong small' appears, with the figure of the player in the middle, which can be interpreted as 'When the obstacles are strong, Super Lamine makes them small'.

Lamine Yamal is already a cultural icon in Barcelona

This is not the first mural in Barcelona dedicated to the youth academy player. Last May, the local artist Adrià Bosch presented a portrait of Yamal on another wall in Gràcia.

In it, you can see the face of the 'crack' of Barça and the Spanish National Team with a serious expression. In the work of 'TVBoy', on the other hand, Lamine appears smiling. When the obstacles are strong, small.

Before reaching adulthood, the new star of Barça is already a cultural icon for Barcelona, as a reference for the new generation of world football and an example for kids from all social spheres.

Yamal will start this week the preseason of what will be his third full season with the first team of Barcelona. The '10' is already one of the favorites for the Ballon d'Or 2025 and has 25 goals and 34 assists in 105 official matches, in addition to multiple precocity records.

Lamine Yamal's birthday marks the start of 2025/26 for Barça

This Sunday, the Rocafonda native turns 18 and FC Barcelona, in turn, formally starts the 2025 preseason with the return of the entire squad to carry out the routine medical tests prior to the start of training.

Lamine, before that, will hold a private party this Saturday night in Barcelona. The meeting will be marked by the presence of various personalities from sports, music and entertainment, including streamers and part of the Barça squad.
