"Barcelona" has appealed to the Spanish national team management, requesting that winger Lamin Yamal not be included in the squad for the first two matches of the 2026 World Cup.
This was reported by "Sport.es".
It is noted that the club is concerned about the footballer's health condition and wants him to be fully recovered before the tournament. If Yamal does not play in the matches against Cabo Verde and Saudi Arabia, it will allow him to avoid the risk of worsening his injury.
Yamal's World Cup debut could take place in the match against Uruguay. However, the final decision will depend on his recovery process.
It should be noted that Yamal was injured while taking a penalty in the 33rd round of the Spanish championship match against "Celta" (1:0) and left the field./publika.az
