Lamine Yamal Joins Kings League Capital With His Own Team
This time, the spotlight is on Lamine Yamal, the young gem of FC Barcelona, who has just announced his participation in Kings League Capital as a new team president. At just 16 years old, Yamal becomes the youngest president in the league's history.
Capital, the international and expanded version of the phenomenon created by Gerard Piqué, aims to take the competition to the next level with high-profile signings, revolutionary rules, and global venues. Lamine’s arrival is the latest proof of that ambition.
What is Lamine Yamal’s New Team?
Although the official name of the team has not yet been revealed, it has been confirmed that Lamine Yamal will lead one of the new clubs set to debut in the 2025 Capital season. The team will be unveiled—complete with its crest, colors, and squad—during the Kings League Global Draft, scheduled for May.
Sources close to the project say Yamal’s team will have an identity based on youth, emerging talent, and an attacking style of play, very much in line with his own footballing philosophy.
