Lamine Yamal Breaks Mbappe's Teenage UCL Record: Barcelona Kits to Wear
Barcelona opened the 2026-27 Champions League with a 5-1 dismantling of Feyenoord, and once again the night belonged to Lamine Yamal. One goal, two assists, and a place in the record books: with 21 Champions League goal involvements before his 20th birthday, the 19-year-old has passed Kylian Mbappe's teenage mark of 20 and now owns the record outright.
How the Record Night Unfolded
The pattern was set inside three minutes: Yamal slipped the pass for Raphinha to open the scoring. He then curled a direct free kick into the net in the 77th minute - at 19 years and 58 days, the youngest player to score a direct free kick for a La Liga club in Champions League history - and laid on the fifth goal for Gabriel Jesus in the 85th. Raphinha added his second, Adeyemi scored in between, and Barcelona's front line ran Feyenoord ragged.

Opta's official count after the Feyenoord match: 21 goal involvements (11 goals, 10 assists) as a teenager - the outright record, one clear of the 20 Mbappe compiled before turning 20. And the captaincy came with it: when Raphinha handed over the armband in the 71st minute, Yamal became the youngest player ever to captain Barcelona in an official match.
The Ballon d'Or Subplot
The timing matters. Yamal is among the 30 nominees for the 2026 Ballon d'Or after coming close last year, and the record night arrived days after Mbappe said publicly that he felt capable of winning it - with Yamal's quiet on-pitch answer doing the talking. Barcelona, meanwhile, have won all four of their opening Liga fixtures, so the teenager is chasing a treble-shaped season: La Liga, the Champions League, and the individual award.
Yamal Kits: Barcelona 10 and Spain 19
Two shirts define his collection right now. In club colours, the Barcelona home shirt with Yamal 10 on the back is the one Camp Nou sings about. With Spain, the home fan jersey and the red-and-yellow away shirt both carry his number 19 - the number he wore through Euro 2024, where he set the tournament's assist record.
