Barcelona coach Hansi Flick stated that teenage star Lamine Yamal is regaining his top form ahead of Monday's La Liga match against Rayo Vallecano. The 19-year-old struggled in Barcelona's season opener against Elche but showed improvement against Athletic Bilbao, despite not scoring. Flick confirmed Yamal, a Spanish World Cup winner, is returning to his best after a hamstring injury in April. He had limited individual impact at the World Cup despite Spain's success. Flick expressed happiness with Yamal's 90-minute performance against Bilbao, noting glimpses of his top level. He emphasized the club's support for Yamal, who appeared happier in training. Barcelona won both opening fixtures with Raphinha playing as a makeshift number nine. Sporting director Deco is working to strengthen the team, but Flick is content with the current squad if they cannot sign Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid.
