Watch: Lamine Yamal makes subtle gesture that reveals strong bond with Barcelona summer signing | OneFootball

Barcelona fans are already catching glimpses of a promising partnership between teenage sensation Lamine Yamal and new signing Marcus Rashford.

In a recent training session at the Goyang Stadium in South Korea, their growing bond was on full display and supporters are loving it.

During Wednesday’s training session, Barcelona’s official social media accounts posted a video showing Yamal scoring a goal against Inaki Pena and celebrating with a now-iconic gesture made famous by Rashford, pointing to his temple.

A nod to Rashford

This subtle yet powerful act spoke volumes as it was a public nod to the growing connection between two of Barça’s most exciting attacking options.

Yamal later doubled down on the gesture by posting the moment to his Instagram account, mirroring how Rashford used to celebrate during his Manchester United days.

This online gesture makes it clear that Rashford is settling in quickly at Barcelona and that he and Yamal are building a strong personal and footballing bond.

Interestingly, even before Rashford officially joined the club, Yamal had been actively engaging with his social media posts, hinting at a connection well before they became teammates.

Flick ready to unleash them together

Fans may not have to wait long to see them in action together. In Barcelona’s pre-season debut under Hansi Flick against Vissel Kobe, Yamal featured only in the first half, while Rashford came on later for the second.

However, with the team continuing to build fitness and cohesion, the expectation is that both players will start getting more minutes together on the pitch.

Hansi Flick is looking to establish his ideal front line, and based on early signs, Yamal and Rashford could become a key part of his attacking blueprint.

As the pre-season progresses, supporters are hopeful this exciting duo can light up matches just as they have already started lighting up training.
