It's not about personal problems! The real reason behind Lamine Yamal's somber mood revealed

The downturn in Lamine Yamal's mood is rooted in reasons quite different from what many fans had assumed.

Details: According to the popular Spanish TV program El Chiringuito, the recent emotional slump and subdued demeanor of Barcelona’s rising star have nothing to do with issues in his personal life. In reality, the young winger is deeply troubled by the potential departure of three of his closest friends from the Catalan squad—friends he’s known and bonded with for over a decade since their early days together at La Masia academy.

Sources say the situation surrounding the 19-year-old intensified after Barcelona’s head coach Hansi Flick left his best friend, left-back Alejandro Balde, out of the squad for Sunday’s match.

It's worth noting that the 19-year-old Lamine Yamal is a key player for both Barcelona and the Spanish national team. According to the reputable portal Transfermarkt, his market value is estimated at €220 million.
