Hello everyone! I'm sorry I didn't get to do the world famous 'Here's The Sticker' blog post for a little while! I came over with a cold and I was generally just under the weather and so I couldn't really concentrate on doing a blog post but we're back alive and kicking!.

I fancied writing about Lamine Yamal! I know he's not some hidden gem of a footballer but I can honestly say he's a gem of a footballer (not that you needed me to tell you that) but he just has everything a future Ballon d'Or winner needs, the goals, the vision, the technical ability and so much more.

I have to admit something off the bat... I am a huge huge HUGE fan of Lamine Yamal and so it creeps into my decision making whenever I am buying his cards or stickers, we opened a box of Champions League 23/24 stickers hunting for his first sticker for Barcelona and we had to wait until the very last pack until we found him and I was absolutely delighted to see it but sadly the sticker had a knock on the top but I will be 100% honest... I am shocked that the sticker is not expensive at all... I feel it is well worth a bump in price, now that's not me saying "rush out and buy them all! Quickly snap them all up" because that would be foolish, I just can't believe a rookie sticker from his first year is roughly around £10-25 and professionally graded copies are around £100-200 pounds and whilst I am a huge Yamal fan I am also so excited for the future of football with some of the young players but I do wonder who will be the next big thing which I know is already very early days but there are just so many wonderkids coming through such as Wael Mohya for Borussia Monchengladbach who plays as a midfielder who at 17 has already made 7 appearances for Borussia Monchengladbach, Luka Vuskovic from Tottenham whose on loan at Hamburg in the Bundesliga, he's very highly rated by Tottenham who I feel they'll be looking to build the defence around should Van De Ven or Romero leave in the future!. The last player I will mention is Endrick, the Real Madrid and Brazilian forward who is currently on loan at Lyon in Ligue 1 and he's absolutely hit the ground running although it isn't much of a surprise looking at his record whilst playing in Brazil and as the time of writing about him he's got 3 goals in 4 games under Paulo Fonseca!.

I don't want to get too carried away with the future of football but it certainly looks bright, there are so many players I haven't named as we'd be here all day long but I really hope you enjoyed the third instalment of 'Here's The Sticker'.
