American Eagle will release an exclusive apparel collection by Lamine Yamal globally on Sept. 3, following a back-to-school campaign starting Aug. 26.

The move elevates the partnership from brand ambassadorship to a signature collection and highlights Yamal’s rapid rise as a high-value commercial figure after Spain’s World Cup win. » Altro su forbes.com
