Yamal has already made 14 starts this season, scoring four goals and registering six assists for Xavi's side. It is perhaps little surprise, then, that he is being approached by supporters in public.
WHAT YAMAL SAID
Asked about his experiences with supporters, Yamal said in a sit down with YouTuber , via Mundo Deportivo: "Recently, a girl approached me in an elevator, asked for a photo, and then said, 'Give me your phone number, I need it. No, I don't want it at all, I just want to have it.'
"I was speechless, especially since we were in an elevator."
