Daniel Regha Slams Comparisons Between Lamine Yamal and Lionel Messi
Daniel Regha, a prominent figure on social media, popular with his controversial posts recently took to X to express his strong disapproval of comparisons between the young Spanish footballer Lamine Yamal and the legendary Lionel Messi.
In an impressive tweet, Regha stated, “Don’t compare Lamine Yamal to Lionel Messi, that’s disrespectful in every sense of the word. Yamal is not even the best in his set (presently).”
This statement underscores Regha’s belief and understanding that comparing a young player like Yamal, who is still developing, to a global football icon like Messi is unfair and reduces Messi’s unequalled and unparalleled contributions and achievements.
Regha’s view has sparked debate among football followers and fans, with some agreeing that such comparisons are untimely premature and potentially destructive to Yamal’s development. Others think that comparisons are necessarily inevitable for young talents, and that Yamal’s exceptional early performances warrant such attention.
Netizens reacted,
“We’re talking about at 17 years, pal”
“Yamal is better than Ronaldo and Neymar combined”
“Lamine Yamal is presently the best young player in the world, and even Lionel Messi was not that good at 17. No shade 😎”

“Messi and yamal are on same set cus the boy get doings pass messi at this young age go make research”
“Kindly name his set…….”
“Sure it’s disrespectful to compare Yamal to Messi but you saying he is not the best of his set presently is also not making sense and if I may ask can you tell me who is the best young player at the moment”
“No one compares them but talking about being the best of his set, a fvcking yes bruh.”
“Nor mind them. So insulting. Soon them go compare Amad Diallo to Messi”
“Lamin yamal is lowkey the most overrated player in the world and I’m ready to witness his downfall. Inshallah I’ll be there I’ll be there inshallah”
However the different opinions, Regha’s statement is a reminder to appreciate the unique talents of each player and avoid imposing unrealistic expectations on young footballers.
