Lamine Yamal sur le choix entre l’Espagne et le Maroc : « Au fond de moi, j’avais pensé au Maroc, mais… »

Brilliant once again this Saturday during FC Barcelona's 3-1 victory against Alavés in La Liga, Lamine Yamal (18 years old, 23 caps, 6 goals) spoke candidly on the program "60 Minutes Overtime." The Barcelona winger addressed a topic that has long fueled debate surrounding him: his choice between Spain and Morocco for his international career.

Asked about this decisive moment, the young prodigy admitted that his hesitation had been real: "Deep down, I had thought about Morocco, but I had always wanted to play in the Euros," he confided.

Born in Spain, but deeply attached to his Moroccan origins, Lamine Yamal explains that his choice was made "out of conviction", guided by his sporting ambitions and his desire to be a long-term part of the Roja project.

By publicly acknowledging this choice, the Barça player puts an end to a long chapter of speculation surrounding his sporting nationality, while reaffirming his respect for both of his cultures.

    un choix clair et assumé. Malheureusement, ses compatriotes marocains lui pourriront la vie.
