Lamin Yamal is not at all satisfied with the current situation in which he lives, and so is his father. They believe he deserved to get many extra minutes at Barcelona, especially after seeing the complicated run of results they are going through, and the poor performance of the vast majority of their rivals in attack. Because no striker escapes criticism from the press and fans
Robert Lewandowski, Joao Felix, Rafinha and Ferran Torres are always in the spotlight, but that has not helped the 16-year-old winger cement his place in the starting lineup. Xavi Hernandez, due to technical decisions, preferred to continue trusting the hierarchy and experience of the veterans, instead of the Spaniard-Moroccan, who sees that he is not yet ready to play absolutely everything, even if he has stratospheric potential
This is something 27 doesn’t fully understand. Every time he is on the field and has the opportunity to touch the ball, he creates a constant danger, and he is the only one who dares to innovate and take responsibility for penetrating the opponent’s defences, as Ousmane Dembélé did. To continue to grow and mature, what he needs are opportunities, not just playing in the last few minutes of every game.
He realizes that he must be patient, but he cannot hide that he is getting more and more desperate. After it became clear that both Lamine and his father were dissatisfied with coach Ijara’s management, it did not take long for the first rumors to appear about his possible departure in the summer. There are not a few teams willing to try to pry him out of Camp Nou, paying whatever is necessary
So Barcelona has a serious problem with Yamal. If the situation does not change, Yamal could become a source of conflict for Xavi and Joan Laporta
Jorge Mendes also presses with lamin
Jorge Mendes, Lamine’s agent, demands more regularity and presence in Xavi’s systems. He accepted the renewal offer with the promise that it would be fixed, but it was not fulfilled
He will have no problem getting him out of Barcelona and starting to negotiate with the many suitors that Yamal has.
