Barcelona winger, Lamine Yamal, on Monday night set a new record after his side’s LaLiga 2-1 defeat to Girona.
According to OptaJose, Yamal is now the first player to complete 100 successful dribbles in the five major European leagues this season (199 attempted) after Girona defeated the Blaugrana.
The Spain international is 26 more than the second person, RB Leipzig’s Yan Diomande, in the ranking.
Diomande has completed 74 out of 138 dribbles so far.
Yamal has been impressive for Barcelona since he was promoted to the first team under former manager Xavi Hernandez.
The 18-year-old will now hope to lead Hansi Flick’s side to victory when they face Levante in their next game in the LaLiga this weekend.
