Controversial remarks by Barcelona’s young forward Lamine Yamal, accusing rival club Real Madrid of “stealing,” have prompted a planned confrontation by Real Madrid captain Dani Carvajal following their upcoming “El Clásico” match.
Real Madrid players have deemed Yamal’s comments a “lack of respect” and “stupidity,” according to reports.
The Spanish giants are concerned Yamal’s statements could jeopardize the “great harmony” currently existing within the Spanish national team.
Yamal made his controversial remarks during a Kings League event. When asked if a Kings League opponent resembled Real Madrid, he stated, “It seems so to me. They steal, they are always complaining…”
Carvajal plans to speak with Yamal after the highly anticipated match on Sunday, scheduled for 3:15 PM local time.
