Bad news for FC Barcelona. Young winger Lamine Yamal will not be available for tomorrow's match against Valencia, as confirmed by the club. The absence is due to physical discomfort that the player has been dragging since the last international break.

The news has sparked a heated reaction from Barça coach, Hansi Flick, who has not hesitated to criticize the Spanish national team for the management of the player's physical condition.

Hansi Flick, very critical of the national team

The German coach has appeared in a press conference and has expressed his deep disappointment with what happened. "He will not be available tomorrow. He already left with pain," Flick said visibly upset.

“They had at least three goals lead in each match and he played 73 and 79 minutes, and between the matches he could not train. That's not taking care of the player. I am very sad about this.”, a truly upset Hansi Flick commented

The FC Barcelona coach also spoke about the lack of communication between Barcelona and the RFEF on this issue. "I have never spoken to Luis de la Fuente. My Spanish is not very good, his English is not very good. Communication can be better. I've been in that place and I know how hard the job of a national team coach is."

About the ailment that Lamine suffers, the club confirmed through its press officer, Gabriel Martínez, that "it's a slight discomfort in the pubis. He will not be available for the match and is doubtful for Newcastle".
