Barcelona star Lamine sends social media message to Raphinha | OneFootball

Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has on Sunday taken to social media, to send a message of well wishes to teammate and attacker partner Raphinha.

This comes on the day of the latter’s 29th birthday.

Taking to his official Instagram account this morning, Lamine unveiled a pair of photos of he and Raphinha, accompanied by the caption:

‘Happy birthday big brother!!!’

Raphinha’s birthday caps what has of course been a weekend to remember for the former Leeds United standout.

The Brazilian was back in from the off on Saturday evening, as Barcelona welcomed Osasuna to the Camp Nou for a La Liga clash.

And en route to an eventual 2-0 Blaugrana triumph, Raphinha proved himself the star of the show.

This came courtesy of a 2nd-half brace, enough to guide Hansi Flick’s troops a full seven points clear of arch rivals Real Madrid atop the Spanish top-flight table.
