Yes, those photos you’ve seen are real.
More than 18 years ago, a baby named Lamine Yamal and his mom Sheila met Lionel Messi at a UNICEF fundraising photoshoot.
Today, their achievements on the pitch inspire millions. Off the pitch, both Messi and Lamine Yamal use their voices and platforms as UNICEF Goodwill Ambassadors to support and advocate for children around the world.
The goal? That every child survives, thrives, and fulfils their potential.
We are proud to have them on our team.

Three months after we met… boom, we were expecting a baby. 😅 Next week, on 21 July, we celebrate 10 years together. Our first and still our only turned 9 on 14 July. Crazy how life writes the best stories. ❤️
Yamal a 19 ans
Il porte le numéro 19
La finale de la Coupe du monde c’est est le 19
Et il va jouer contre Messi 19 ans après être lavé par celui ci et qui portait le numero 19 à l’époque
