FC Barcelona: Lamine Yamal, the radical change

You can see it on the pitch—Lamine Yamal has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent weeks after a lukewarm start to the season.

Now injury-free, Lamine Yamal can finally focus 100% on his football. FC Barcelona is reaping the rewards, as since the start of 2026, Yamal has been decisive almost every time he steps onto the field. This impressive form appears to be the result of a major decision he made recently.

“There have been professional changes regarding the people working with him. New professionals have come in and guided him in certain areas. For example, they’ve made changes to his social media activity. Lamine now posts much less, and when he does, it’s about football and always related to Barça. They’ve helped him understand what social media is about. He’s focused on football and has distanced himself from social networks a bit,” revealed Barça insider José Alvarez on the El Chiringuito show.
