The Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal is preparing to celebrate his 18th birthday in the least spectacular way. The Barça winger organizes a secret celebration in Ibiza, with VIP list and formal prohibition of mobile phones. An approach that questions the evolution of the young Spanish talent.
Since the start of his holidays, Yamal has multiplied outings and pleasures, far from the wise image that we would expect from a high -level footballer. This birthday party seems to confirm a switch to extravagance, where the player no longer sets any limits. The prohibition of phones testifies to a desire for total discretion, but also of an approach assumed towards all excesses.
Lamine Yamal, a change of attitude that questions
This new attitude contrasts with the usual rigor of the great hopes of football. At 18, the age when most professional players still learn discipline, the Kopa trophy winner seems to have chosen a different path. His recent stays in Ibiza, especially in the company of Neymar, do not go unnoticed in the world of football.
The influence of Brazilian, known for his relaxed lifestyle, could explain this transformation. Yamal, who until then seemed to be spared by temptations, no longer seems receptive to the advice of prudence. This approach detonates with the requirements of a footballer who targets the highest peaks.
The disproportionate party of Lamine Yamal worries Barcelona
Risks for its future
This drift towards extravagance could well attract criticism, both of its detractors and simple football observers. For a player considered as a serious candidate for the Ballon d'Or, this inconsistency with the expected standards of a high -level athlete poses question.
The Barcelona entourage carefully observes this evolution. If Yamal's talent remains indisputable, his recent behavior takes away from the image of the exemplary professional that the club wishes to promote. This birthday party could mark a turning point in the perception of the young prodigy.
