Lamine Yamal Speaks About Fitness Ahead of Austria Clash
Yamal has provided an update on his fitness ahead of the upcoming match.
In April, Yamal suffered a thigh muscle injury and only made his comeback in the opening match against Cape Verde.
Now, in the round of sixteen against Austria (at 9 PM in the LIVE ticker and in the Watchparty), he aims to regain his old form.
"80 to 90 Percent Fitness"
In an interview with "Partidazo de COPE", the 18-year-old FC Barcelona attacker stated that he currently feels "80 to 90 percent fit".
Despite not yet being at full capacity, he is convinced he can play a full match.
"I can play 90 minutes against Austria," Yamal said about the upcoming clash.
In the last group match against Uruguay, the 18-year-old was substituted in the 76th minute.
