Barça: Lamine Yamal makes an announcement before the World Cup

Away from the field since the end of April, Lamine Yamal (18) continues his convalescence while the 2026 World Cup will begin in a month on American soil. Suffering from a muscular injury to the biceps femoris of his left leg, the Spanish crack does not intend to take any risks, as he confirmed during the Spanish stage of the Kings League in Barcelona.

‘I’m not going to touch a ball until the World Cup’thus launched the Barcelona genius. As a reminder, Lamine Yamal’s resumption date is still uncertain less than a month before Spain’s first match, June 15 against Cape Verde. The Spanish press even indicates that the Catalan could start this World Cup during the last group match against Uruguay, on June 27.
