A compilation of Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal has gone viral after his performance against Sevilla on Friday evening.

At 16 years of age, Yamal has already broken into Barcelona's first team and has already drawn comparisons to a young Lionel Messi.

But while many youngsters have earned that tag over the years, Yamal appears to be the real deal.

His opportunity has arrived following the departure of Ousmane Dembele to PSG, and the fact that Barca did not sign his replacement shows how much trust and belief they have in Yamal.

The Spain youth international started on the right side of attack against Sevilla, playing 81 minutes as Barca edged a 1-0 win.

Much was made of his potential battle against Sergio Ramos, who is back at Sevilla this season after 18 years away.

But the 37-year-old veteran was left on the losing side - and scored an own goal shortly before Yamal left the pitch.

Yamal, meanwhile, enhanced his reputation with another display that proves why Barca rate him so highly.

A compilation of the winger's performance has already gone viral, which you can see below.

What is noticeable immediately is that Yamal was going to be in a physical battle against La Liga's current basement dwellers - but that was never going to put the 16-year-old off.

He got stuck in, pressing with high intensity throughout the game, as well as putting tackles in.

Later on, he left Marcos Acuna helpless with by cutting inside with one movement, before gliding beyond two more defenders and firing a dangerous low cross into the area.

Yamal found more space on the right flank as the game went on, and charged inside before feigning to shoot in another move. His cutback to Raphinha earned Barca a corner.

The 16-year-old then played a critical role in the goal that won Les Cules the game.

He drifted to the back post to win a header, with the ball deflecting off Ramos and into the back of the net.

And as the game went on, Sevilla defenders were only able to stand off the winger and watch as he constantly created chances for his team-mates.

Yamal received a standing ovation from the Camp Nou crowd when he was removed from the action. Barca have a star on their hands.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Barca will announce on Monday that their prized youngster has signed a new contract, meaning Europe's elite will have to take notice.
