Rising tension between young star and captain
Barcelona’s 18-year-old sensation Lamine Yamal is making headlines again—this time not for his dazzling dribbles, but for a heated fallout with Real Madrid captain Dani Carvajal. Following a fiery El Clasico, Yamal reportedly unfollowed Carvajal on social media, signaling a complete break between the two Spanish internationals.
Football fans on 12BET Malaysia have been quick to react, debating whether Yamal’s bold personality is confidence—or immaturity.

The spark that ignited the storm
Before the match, Yamal made controversial remarks criticizing Real Madrid, calling them “too weak at home” and accusing them of “dirty tricks and constant complaints.” His words caused a stir across Spain and inside the Real Madrid dressing room.
Despite the tension, Madrid players chose silence before kickoff—but they responded where it mattered most, by securing victory in the El Clasico, a result celebrated by 12BET Malaysia fans who backed Los Blancos in their matchday predictions.
Clash on the pitch and beyond
After the match, emotions exploded. According to multiple reports, Carvajal confronted Yamal directly, scolding him for his pre-match comments. The young Barca winger refused to back down, and the argument quickly turned into a heated exchange involving several players from both teams.
Yamal allegedly challenged Madrid players to settle things “after the game,” which only deepened the tension. Shortly after, he unfollowed Carvajal, ending what had been a friendly connection since Euro 2024.

Concern within Barcelona’s camp
Inside Barcelona’s dressing room, several senior players reportedly feel Yamal is letting fame get to his head. According to Catalan media, Pedri and Frenkie de Jong have privately urged him to control his emotions, while even Rashford, a visiting guest at a recent training event, advised him to focus more on football and less on social media noise.
At just 18, Yamal’s talent is undeniable, but his attitude is raising questions. As football analysts on 12BET Malaysia point out, “Great players are remembered for composure as much as skill.”
Time to grow up for Yamal
Despite being valued at an incredible €200 million, Yamal’s next challenge is not just on the pitch—it’s managing the spotlight. Barcelona hopes this young star learns to channel his passion positively, avoiding unnecessary controversies that distract from his football.
