Caught: Lamine Yamal's Link to Real Madrid That Worries Laporta a Lot

The Young Barcelona Winger Is a Source of Joy and Caution for the blaugrana Leaders

One of the most outstanding players of the current season is Lamine Yamal. The '19' of FC Barcelona has become one of Hansi Flick's regular starters given his excellent performance, which draws the attention of the European soccer elite. In that sense, the Barça leaders will do everything possible to prevent his departure.

Although Real Madrid is not considering signing the Spanish star of FC Barcelona, the reports handled by Joan Laporta would be a cause for concern. Especially after the images that have resurfaced of the father of the Barça striker showing his Madridism in a totally convinced and convincing manner.

On the occasion of the victory in the 2022 Paris Champions League final, Mounir Nasraoui went to the Plaza de la Cibeles to celebrate that title with many other Madridists. That gathering of the white fans included the participation of Lamine Yamal's father, a key member of the footballer's personal circle... and who has a tremendous influence over the '19' of FC Barcelona.

So far, Mounir Nasraoui's Madridism has not been a problem for his son to establish himself as one of the stars of this renewed FC Barcelona. But the growth of Lamine Yamal, combined with the interest of several elite clubs, would motivate a team change that would jeopardize a significant part of Barça's sports planning.

Complicated Situation

If a departure of Lamine Yamal to another 'big' team of the Old Continent can be interpreted as a terrible news, his move to Santiago Bernabéu locker room would be devastating. That's why Joan Laporta, with the aim of preventing Real Madrid from taking part in the future of the Barça '19', closely follows this surprising connection of Mounir Nasraoui.

The Madridism of Lamine Yamal's father has taken a discreet backseat since the Barça striker gained notoriety as a player of the merengue's main domestic rival. But from the noble area of the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium, they seem to have plenty of reasons to stay alert and closely monitor any approach toward the entity presided over by Florentino Pérez.

From the Valdebebas offices, apart from the debate about signing a forward for the next season, they have not shown real interest in the incorporation of Lamine Yamal. Despite everything, the urgency to add attacking assets after a truly disappointing season motivates the emergence of multiple rumors that Joan Laporta doesn't let pass.

The possible 'Lamine Yamal case' at Real Madrid is one of the great fears of the president of FC Barcelona. Especially given the Madridist affiliation of Mounir Nasraoui, a very influential person in the Barça star Lamine Yamal.
