Story behind baby Yamal's photoshoot with a young Lionel Messi:
At the time, Messi was a 20-year-old rising star for Barcelona, already making a significant impact on the global stage. Lamine Yamal, now a teenage sensation for both Barcelona and the Spanish national team, was merely 6 months old.
The occasion for this encounter was a charity initiative. The photoshoot was part of an annual project to create a charity calendar, a collaboration between UNICEF and the local newspaper, Diario Sport. Barcelona players would pose with children and their families for this calendar. Lamine Yamal's family, who lived in Mataró, a town near Barcelona, were chosen to participate after winning a raffle organized by UNICEF. This lottery gave them the unique opportunity to have their picture taken at Camp Nou with a Barça player.
