Lamine Yamal Shocks Fans by Urging Hansi Flick to Bench a Barcelona Player for the Rest of the Season
In a thrilling 4-3 win over fierce rivals Real Madrid in the 35th round of La Liga, Barcelona moved just two points away from securing the league title with three games remaining. However, despite the celebrations following this dramatic El Clásico, internal tensions have surfaced.
Reports indicate that rising star Lamine Yamal has made a bold request to new manager Hansi Flick: to drop Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny from the starting eleven for the remainder of the season. Yamal is reportedly frustrated by Szczęsny’s error-prone performances, blaming him for nearly jeopardizing the win against Madrid and citing past costly mistakes in the Champions League.
Calling Szczęsny a liability, Yamal allegedly told Flick, “Enough. He’s done enough harm to the team this season,” labeling the goalkeeper’s continued inclusion as a needless risk.
As the title race reaches its climax, Barcelona’s management may need to step in swiftly to prevent further discord within the squad.
