There’s a new power couple making waves, blending the worlds of football and music! It seems FC Barcelona star Lamine Yamal isn’t just focused on scoring goals on the pitch and dominating European competitions. He’s also won the heart of Argentine singer Nicki Nicole.
For weeks, whispers about their romance have been flying around. Now, the 18-year-old Spanish footballer has officially confirmed his relationship with the 25-year-old artist. He did it in the sweetest way. A special picture on his Instagram story this past Monday celebrated Nicki’s birthday.
While the photo itself didn’t have a big “I love you” message, the scene said it all. Imagine this: a beautiful bouquet of roses. Delicate petals scattered on a table. Festive balloons and a candle glowed next to a birthday cake. To top it off, Yamal hugged Nicole from behind. His arm was gently around her waist. It’s a warm, trusting embrace that clearly shows how comfortable they are together.
Nicki Nicole, who hails from Rosario and was celebrating turning 25, quickly shared Yamal’s story. She added a few fiery heart emojis, a small but clear sign of her feelings. Everything points to this relationship being fresh and absolutely buzzing with romance.

As this new love story takes off and spreads like wildfire online, not everyone is cheering. Many fans are excited, but some worry about the seven-year age difference between Lamine and Nicki. Others feel the young football prodigy should keep his eyes on the prize. That means his team, FC Barcelona, and nothing else.
The hints that something was brewing between them actually started on Yamal’s 18th birthday. Nicki Nicole showed up at his big party. She was just one guest, but people noticed her. She was hanging out with his closest friends and family. A few days later, she appeared at the Joan Gamper Trophy match. She proudly wore an FC Barcelona shirt with Lamine’s name on the back. Talk about a public display of support!
Despite all these signs, the couple has chosen to keep their relationship mostly out of the spotlight. Even the recent birthday picture, while sweet, didn’t come with a long message. This suggests both Yamal and Nicole want to keep things private, letting their actions speak louder than words.

A Look Back at Nicki Nicole’s Love Life
Before Lamine Yamal came into the picture, Nicki Nicole has had a few very public relationships. Her first well-known romance was with rapper Trueno. They were a beloved duo in Argentine trap music. They shared stages, created music, and had viral moments together. Their relationship ended in 2022, but they both confirmed it was on good terms, like true professionals.
Then, Nicki made headlines again in 2023 when she started dating Mexican singer Peso Pluma. This couple quickly became a social media sensation. Everyone was talking about their joint appearances and the sweet ways they showed affection in public.
However, their story took a dramatic turn. Rumors of infidelity started swirling around, leading to a big breakup in early 2024. Nicki herself confirmed the split with a strong message on her social media, leaving no room for doubt. Before Trueno, Nicki kept her relationships very quiet. None gained as much attention as her time with Peso Pluma. He is now in a serious relationship with Mexican singer and YouTuber Kenia Os.
