Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has taken to social media to express his admiration for teammate Jules Kounde's exceptional skills.

The duo played a crucial role in Barcelona's 5-1 Copa del Rey win over Real Betis on Wednesday, with Kounde scoring a goal and having another ruled out for a marginal offside call.

Yamal, who has consistently impressed with his attacking prowess, has been delighted with Kounde's increased contribution in the final third this season.

The French defender has been in outstanding form, and Yamal believes he is the best right-back in the world.

In a comment on Kounde's Instagram post, Yamal wrote: "I said it already. Best right-back in the world."
