ToggleHenry had been wowed by Yamal during Barcelona's 3-3 draw with Inter at the end of April and the pair agreed to swap shirts after this weekend's Clasico during a post-match interview on CBS Sports. The former France star revealed he planned to be in attendance for the game and asked for the teenage sensation's jersey, but Yamal was keen to get an Henry shirt for himself from the deal.

Henry is an all-time great thanks to his spells at Arsenal and Barcelona but Yamal is already on the way to similar heights after a breathtaking start to his senior career. The 17-year-old helped Spain win Euro 2024 last year and is leading Hansi Flick's club side to a 28th La Liga title, playing a starring role in Sunday's 4-3 victory over Real Madrid which took them seven points clear at the top of the table with only three games remaining.
Yamal spoke to the media after the Clasico win. He said: "It was a very important match to gain a considerable lead. After the Champions League match, it was very important to win, and even more so if it was against Madrid. Today is time to enjoy it."
Yamal and Barcelona have the chance to wrap up the title on Thursday night when they take on city rivals Espanyol, with the teenager very likely to be involved.
