Barcelona player Lamine Yamal’s father, Mounir Nasraoui, turns out to be a fan of Real Madrid, the club his son hates. This news was conveyed by Forbes when discussing Lamine Yamal, who openly refused when asked if he would be interested in joining Real Madrid one day.
“Even though he grew up in Mataro, which is a satellite city 30 kilometers from the city center of Barcelona, Lamine Yamal’s father is a loyal Real Madrid supporter who is thought to have encouraged his son to join Barcelona’s main rivals,” wrote Forbes.
Apart from that, a photo was circulating that allegedly Mounir Nasraoui was spreading a Real Madrid scarf in front of the Santiago Bernabeu. This seems to indicate that the Moroccan man really supports Los Blancos – Real Madrid’s nickname.
In mid-February 2024, according to a Forbes report, Real Madrid has also approached Mounir Nasraoui to obtain the services of Lamine Yamal. However, Barcelona Sports Director Deco Souza confirmed that Lamine Yamal would not be sold.
Currently, Lamine Yamal’s contract with Barcelona ends on June 30 2026, or there are two years remaining. Since many are interested in the 16-year-old winger, Barcelona management is predicted to offer a new contract to the youngest goalscorer at the Euros (16 years 362 days).
According to the EFE report, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) offered Lamine Yamal to Barcelona for 250 million euros. However, Barcelona rejected the offer.
Therefore, how long will Lamine Yamal stay at Barcelona? One thing is certain, Lamine Yamal will not want to leave for Real Madrid.
In an interview released by El Chiringuito TV, Lamine Yamal was asked “will I never play for Real Madrid?” Loudly, Lamine Yamal said yes, it was a sign that he would never defend Real Madrid, which is actually Barcelona’s eternal rival.
It will be interesting to wait for the future action of Lamine Yamal, who in the 2023-2024 season scored 7 goals and 10 assists from 50 appearances with Barcelona. Nearby, Lamine Yamal will defend the Spanish national team in the Euro 2024 final to face England on Monday, July 15 2024.
