Yamal Ignites Clásico Controversy: Barcelona Prodigy Accuses Real Madrid

Three days before the kick-off of the Clásico, Lamine Yamine provoked Real Madrid during his appearance on the Kings League set. While Gerard Piqué, also present on the set, asked him if for him Porcinos (the team of the streamer Ibai Llanos, note) is the equivalent of Real Madrid in the Kings League, he responds with humor. "Yes, they steal, they complain all the time...", Lamine Yamal replied. Ibai interrupts the Barça star: "Real Madrid steals?". And the Spanish striker replies to him: "Well...".

Lamine’s remarks provoked hilarity on the set. On the other hand, they have elicited strong reactions on social media and in the Spanish press. The Madrid supporters have described them as disrespectful, while the Barça fans have hailed Yamal’s assurance and humor. "He is not aware of what he represents, of what he can say. He is 18 years old, he is already the leader of Barça and the Spanish national team," Edu Aguirre, a close friend of Real, angrily said on the El Chiringuito set. He thinks he is the king of football. He barely extends his hand to Ronaldo. [...] No player can say that an institution steals. I don’t care if he’s with his friends at the Kings League. He thinks he’s above everything, good and evil."

FC Barcelona and Real Madrid will meet this Sunday at the Santiago Bernabéu, for the first Clásico of the season. Which of Kylian Mbappé and Lamine Yamal will ensure the victory for his team? See you at 4:15 pm.
