Explaining the gesture after the final whistle, the 22-year-old dedicated his goal to Yamal because the pair rose through the youth ranks together. “I dedicated the goal to Lamine because we came up together to the first team and it hurts me that he can\u2019t play anymore,” he revealed after the game.<\/p>\n
Yamal responds from the sidelines<\/p>\n
The message certainly reached its target, with Yamal taking to social media to acknowledge the heartfelt display of solidarity. The winger, who has become an indispensable part of Flick’s tactical setup this season, posted a simple yet powerful response on Instagram: “love you, my g!!!” It was a moment that highlighted the strong bond within the dressing room at Spotify Camp Nou.<\/p>\n
Yamal’s season came to an abrupt end following a hamstring blow suffered against Celta Vigo<\/a>, where he actually scored the winning goal despite feeling discomfort. While he will miss the final stretch of the league campaign, his team-mates are ensuring he remains part of the celebrations as they charge toward silverware.<\/p>\n Despite the disappointment of losing such a precocious talent, manager <\/p>\n Flick shared his thoughts on the injury, stating: “It\u2019s not easy for him or for us. We have to manage it. He\u2019ll learn from his first muscle injury. He\u2019ll surely be ready for the World Cup and will come back stronger. He felt something after the penalty, but nothing serious, so we decided he\u2019d take it. It was his first muscle injury, and it\u2019s not easy to interpret the signs. He\u2019ll learn because he\u2019s very young. He\u2019s already missed games this season, and it wasn\u2019t too bad for us.”<\/p>\n The teenager is expected to be sidelined for four to six weeks, which should leave him plenty of time to join the Spain squad for their World Cup opener against Cape Verde on June 15.<\/p>\n Barca close in on domestic glory The victory over Getafe has put Barcelona<\/a> in a commanding position, moving them 11 points clear at the top of the table with only five games remaining. The focus now shifts to a meeting with Osasuna<\/a> next weekend as the club looks to secure the silverware that would cap off a dominant domestic season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fermin pays tribute to injured star Yamal may have been watching from the sidelines, but he remained the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12250,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[92,829,85,938],"class_list":{"0":"post-12249","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-barcelona","8":"tag-barcelona","9":"tag-celta-vigo","10":"tag-laliga","11":"tag-lamine-yamal"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12249"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12249\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12249"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12249"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}} Flick provides positive injury update<\/p>\n
