Leo Messi introduced ten promising players, including Kenan Yildiz, to a special team created for his technical sponsor.

The video, released by Messi’s sponsor Adidas, shows the Argentinean legend naming ten players for the ‘Messi +10 team.’

Among them are Barcelona and Spain talent Lamine Yamal and Juventus‘ starlet Yildiz, a Turkey international.

The video was released to launch the Messi F50 Stellar Triumph boots, which revisit the Chameleon Pack Messi wore in 2010, a fundamental year in his career.

However, these boots won’t be available to the public as Adidas will produce only 11 pairs for Messi and the players he named in the video.

Yildiz was given the Juventus’ No.10 after signing a contract extension at the beginning of the season.

He has one goal and two assists in nine appearances across all competitions this season.
