The Spanish Football Federation released a statement expressing its “surprise and discomfort” upon discovering that the player had undergone a procedure without prior notice to the coaching staff.<\/p>\n
Just hours before the start of the Spanish National Team’s training camp, the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) decided to release Lamine Yamal<\/a> from the squad for the matches against Georgia and Turkey<\/strong>. The reason was a medical treatment<\/strong> performed on the Barcelona<\/a> player without the knowledge or authorization of the national team’s medical staff<\/strong>, which caused a scandal on the eve of the double FIFA<\/a> date.<\/p>\n In an official statement, the RFEF explained that the medical services learned about the intervention at 13:47 on Monday, November 10, the day the training camp began. “The RFEF Medical Services wish to express their surprise and discomfort after learning that the player Lamine Yamal<\/a> had undergone an invasive radiofrequency procedure to treat his pubic discomfort that same morning”<\/strong>, the text stated.<\/p>\n The organization added that the treatment was carried out without prior communication to the National Team’s medical staff<\/strong> and that the details were only informed at 22:40 that same day through a medical report recommending rest for seven to ten days.<\/p>\n In light of this situation, the Federation decided to temporarily release the player to prioritize his health<\/strong>. “We trust that he can recover favorably and wish him a prompt and complete recovery,” the statement concluded.<\/p>\n In his place, coach Luis de la Fuente called up Jorge de Frutos from Rayo Vallecano to fill Lamine’s position. The decision had a strong impact in Spain<\/a>, where the young 18-year-old winger is considered one of the greatest promises\u2014and present\u2014of European football and a key piece of La Roja’s project for the 2026 World Cup<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Spanish Football Federation released a statement expressing its “surprise and discomfort” upon discovering that the player had…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":563681,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5312],"tags":[2000,299,104],"class_list":{"0":"post-563680","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-spain","8":"tag-eu","9":"tag-europe","10":"tag-spain"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115531398729919289","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/563680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=563680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/563680\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/563681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=563680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=563680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=563680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
