Adu, who was tipped for greatness in his early teens, recalls the challenges he faced as a result of his rapid rise to fame. He says that Yamal, who has already achieved great success at the age of 18, is likely to face similar difficulties due to the immense pressure and attention he receives.

"There are similarities between me and Yamal, because he's been heralded as a huge talent at such a young age and known around the world at this point just like I was," Adu explained. However, he notes that Yamal's situation is different in many ways, as he has already achieved a high level of success and is an integral part of the Barcelona team.

Adu praises Yamal's skills, saying that he is very skilled and comfortable playing for one of the biggest clubs in the world. He notes that Yamal's playing style is similar to his own, with a focus on skill and creativity on the field.

In terms of advice for Yamal, Adu suggests that he focus on his football and try to block out the distractions that come with being a high-profile player. "All eyes are on him all the time, and that's really hard," Adu says. "My advice would be for him to just put his head down, train and just focus on his craft."

Adu understands the challenges that come with being a young player under intense scrutiny, and hopes that Yamal can learn from his own experiences and stay focused on his football.
