A dinner with Sheila Ebana, the mother of the young prodigy of FC Barcelona Lamine Yamal, organized on November 7 at the Nobu Hotel London Portman Square, quickly aroused controversy. The paid event, limited to 400 participants, offered a luxury meal, a DJ and the possibility of meeting Sheila Ebana, transforming the proximity to the family of a star in real commercial experience for fans. Tickets, ranging from 150 to 800 euros depending on the options, fueled criticism, some accusing the organization of taking advantage of the player's image …
However, former footballer Benjamín Zarandona, who served as an intermediary for the organizing company, clarified the situation. On El Larguerohe explained that Sheila Ebana does not organize anything and that she simply goes to the event as a guest. “It is an event company that sets prices and organizes dinner. She is committed and has nothing to do with the organization ”insisted Zarandona. The event thus allows fans to meet the mother of Lamine Yamal in a festive setting, but without it taking any direct profit. This is clearer.
