Mendes: “Italy must focus on young people. And Ronaldo is an example for all of them”

Agent Jorge Mendeswho has many world football stars among his clients, gave an interview in the columns of Tuttosportduring which themes such as Cristiano Ronaldo and young people were intertwined, above all the great promise Lamine Yamal, another footballer managed by Mendes.

This is how it begins on CR7: “Cristiano continues to score goal after goal, break record after record and enjoy what he does so well. It’s not the first time I’ve said it, nor will it be the last: for me he will always be the best player of all time in the history of football”.

Yamal won the Golden Boy 2024 and many see points of contact with CR7 for precocity and seriousness in his approach to the world of football: “I don’t like to make comparisons, but without a doubt Cristiano is a good example to follow, not only for Lamine but for all young people. If he follows his example inside and outside the field, he will certainly be at the top of world football in the next 20 years. Lamine is undoubtedly a phenomenally talented player, who beats all the others, and he is only 17 years old! If he doesn’t get distracted and always stays focused, I have no doubt that Laminae he will win the Ballon d’Or, not once but several times.”
