Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has stirred reactions after declaring that Barcelona youngster Lamine Yamal is better than Argentine football icon Lionel Messi.
The rapper made the bold statement following Yamal’s impressive showing during Barcelona’s thrilling 3-2 El Clasico victory over Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey final, where the 17-year-old provided two crucial assists to help his team lift the King’s Cup on Saturday night.
Applauding Yamal’s outstanding performance, Odumodublvck argued that the teenage sensation has achieved more at his age than Messi had as a teenager.
Sharing his opinion via his X account, Odumodublvck wrote:
“Yamal is better than Lionel Messi. Na me, Kala talk am. At 17, Messi was not touching this [Yamal’s] level. I saw him live. I saw him, you cannot whine me. Nobody can whine me.”
