Lamine Yamal Sets His Return Date and Prepares for a Comeback

Lamine Yamal is making headlines in Spain, creating some tension between his club, FC Barcelona, and the Spanish national team. Earlier this week, the Federation expressed surprise after learning that the player had undergone a radiofrequency procedure to address pubic discomfort on the same morning, which required a medical recommendation of 7 to 10 days of rest. The 18-year-old winger quickly left the team gathering to return to Catalonia.

Since the controversy arose, it marks the third consecutive international break where the player has been at the center of attention. The timeline for his competitive return is still unclear. According to La Cope, Lamine Yamal is expected to return to training on Tuesday, November 18, and could be back on the field by the following weekend, Saturday, November 22, to face Athletic. Until then, he continues his recovery protocol for his pubalgia.
