This is the biggest jackpot of brand could win. So American Eagle signed Lamine Yamal to a five-year ambassador deal. This isn't new because they actually signed him back in January before he won the Spanish League title with Barcelona. And before he became a World Cup champion with Spain. So American Eagle locked him in right before he clocked two of the biggest wins of his career that effectively cement his status as the face of two of the best teams in the world for the foreseeable future. And just how incredible the timing of this is can't be overstated because if you zoom out for a second, we're at a point in the sport where some of the biggest names are aging out. So Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar, Mbappe, Vini, Bellingham, they're all in their 20s. But Lamine Yamal is 19 years old. So he is right smack dab in the target audience range for American Eagle. So they're dropping his first capsule collection in September to cap off back-to-school season. And I'm super curious to see what else they do with him from a brand and product storytelling standpoint. I'll definitely be keeping a close eye on this. So follow along for more.
