Lamine YamalCreative right winger with shot threat
Across 2,296 published minutes for FC Barcelona in LaLiga during 2025/26, the sample fits Lamine Yamal best as a creative right winger with shot threat. Shot volume at 4.59 per 90 (99th percentile) shapes the role. He also posts big-chance creation at 0.94 per 90 (99th percentile) and expected-goal output at 0.58 per 90 (82nd percentile). Shot accuracy is the brake on the attacking case in the 31st percentile. Without chance location, it is too early to call that a finishing flaw.

01 · Role read
The football case
Successful take-on volume at 5.21 per 90 marks another strength in the 99th percentile. The one-versus-one threat is in the numbers. Film must find his second solution when the full-back gets help and the isolation disappears.
This role read belongs to the labelled performance sample. It describes the job supported by the numbers; it does not lock in a position, ceiling or tactical fit.

What the numbers cannot answer
Statistical counterweight
Shot accuracy sits in the 31st percentile in the published evidence. That opens a film question; it does not settle one. Assignment, attempt difficulty and sample size still have to be separated.
- What is Lamine Yamal's counter when the first one-versus-one route is taken away?
- How does he stay involved when opponents send a second defender to the flank?
- How reliably does he recover into the team’s defensive structure?
