Gerrard insisted that Yamal is more advanced than Messi and Ronaldo were at the same age as the Spain international.

Yamal has been a revelation since he broke into Barcelona’s first team in 2023.

The 19-year-old has come close to winning a Ballon d’Or in the last two years, losing out to Ousmane Dembele and Harry Kane.

“In terms of talent and potential, Yamal is doing things on a football pitch that I have never seen a 19-year-old do,” Gerrard said on The Overlap Daily.

At 17, Messi made his Barcelona debut in 2004, while by 19, Ronaldo was already a regular for Manchester United.
