Barcelona Continues to Prioritize Young Star’s Health
Lamine Yamal has again withdrawn from Spain’s national team due to lingering groin issues. The club has cited ongoing treatment for pubalgia as the reason, stressing that the forward’s recovery remains a top priority.
This marks Yamal’s second withdrawal in a short span, reigniting discussions around player fatigue and international commitments. Barcelona’s medical team has taken a cautious approach, recommending against competitive action until the player is fully cleared.
Though the Spanish Football Federation is eager to include him, Barcelona maintains that his rehabilitation timeline is non-negotiable. The club is determined to manage his long-term health carefully given his importance to the team’s future.
While tensions between club and country may rise, both parties recognize Yamal’s value. The forward is expected to return gradually under controlled match fitness conditions, likely staying with the club during the next international break as a precaution.
