Coming on the back of a brilliant Euro victory campaign with Spain, winning the Young Player of the Tournament award, much was expected for Lamine Yamal in the new season, and he has delivered the same. Kickstarting the 2024/25 campaign with a series of masterclass performances for FC Barcelona, he has emerged as one of the best players in European football this season.

Barca's sensational prodigy in doubt for Spain's Nations League fixture

Already up to 10 goal contributions for FC Barcelona in 11 appearances this season, Yamal has been extremely crucial in the club's success this season. Moreover, having achieved another milestone, becoming the first-ever Spanish player to reach €150 million in market value, the young prodigy clearly is one of the biggest assets for FC Barcelona and Spain's future. However, the player would need to remain injury-free to become one of the greatest ever in the sport.

In recent games for FC Barcelona, Yamal has been subjected to serious fouls, putting the player at risk of injuries, and this once again happened in his recent display for his national side, Spain. Being one of the pivotal stars in La Roja's setup, Lamine Yamal was given another start by De La Fuente in the Nations League fixture against Denmark.

Although the 17-year-old prodigy couldn't contribute directly to Spain's scoreline, Yamal was pivotal in their 1-0 win against the Danish side. However, what sounds concerning is that Mundo Deportivo reports suggest that the prodigy winger felt discomfort after the Nations League fixture, being subjected to serious fouls. While the report mentions that he hasn't got a serious injury, the medical tests would confirm his availability in the upcoming games.

As per Relevo reports, Lamine Yamal, who left the pitch limping, is in doubt for Spain's upcoming matchday against Serbia. Although Yamal's availability isn't in question for FC Barcelona's fixture after the ongoing international break, the player not being at his level best could be crucial for the Blaugrana club.

Moreover, considering that Barca is scheduled to line up for some of the biggest fixtures of this season next, they need Yamal to be at his 100%. Barca fans would hope that if he has to miss the Serbia fixture due to discomfort, he does so rather than returning with an injury ahead of their crucial games against Sevilla, Bayern, and Real Madrid.
