A leading member of the attacking ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona is, statistically, the best dribbler in Europe’s top leagues to this point in the campaign.

The player in question? Lamine Yamal.

Wide-man Lamine, for his part, is of course in the midst of another scintillating stretch of individual form.

After capping a historic summer with glory at the European Championships with Spain, the 17-year-old has since carried his brilliance over onto the club stage, too.

Across Barcelona’s first four outings of the La Liga season, Lamine has chipped in with a solitary goal, and a head-turning four assists.

And yet, it is another aspect of the Spaniard’s game which, heading into the international break, sees him stand alone as the statistical leader across the continent’s top-5 leagues.

As per statisticians WhoScored:

‘Lamine Yamal has completed more dribbles (15) than any other player in Europe’s top 5 leagues this season.’
