The relationship between the young FC Barcelona prodigy, Lamine Yamal, and the renowned Argentine singer Nicki Nicko has captured the attention of the media and social networks in recent weeks, but not precisely because of their music or their sports achievements. What seemed to be a promising romance between the 18 -year -old football star and the 25 -year -old rapper has rapidly crumbled, just two weeks after both made their relationship public. According to rumors that have set fire to digital platforms, the break could be related to an alleged infidelity of Nicki Nicole with Franco Mastantuono, the young Argentine promise newcomer to Real Madrid. This unexpected love triangle has generated a whirlwind of speculation, comments and criticism, especially in social networks, where both followers have not taken to react.
It all started when Lamine Yamal and Nicki Nicole were seen together at a hotel during a vacation in Monaco, a moment that unleashed rumors about a possible love relationship. Shortly after, the young soccer player publicly confirmed his courtship by sharing an image in his Instagram stories on August 25, celebrating the birthday of the singer with flowers, a heart and a photograph of both holding hands. This publication, although ephemeral due to the format of Instagram’s stories, was interpreted as an official statement of his romance. In addition, Nicki Nicole was seen wearing a Barcelona shirt with Yamal’s number and attending a team’s game, which fed farther the speculation about the seriousness of her link.
However, the illusion lasted little. Just 13 days after making their relationship public, the followers noticed that Lamine Yamal had deleted from her Instagram account the photos she shared with Nicki Nicole, including those who referred to her birthday. In addition, the young man changed his profile picture for a black background, leaving only a brief description in his biography: “Ly10 – God Bless Me.” These movements did not go unnoticed and unleashed a wave of rumors about a possible break. Some users on social networks did not hesitate to make fun of the brief romance, with comments such as “a relationship that lasted only 13 days” or “the most fleeting love of football.”
In the midst of this stir, a theory arose that has captured the attention of the media, especially in Argentina. According to the show journalist Marcela Taurus, the breakdown of Yamal and Nicki Nicole would be motivated by an alleged relationship of the singer with Franco Mastantuono, the young 17 -year -old talent who recently signed for Real Madrid from River Plate. This speculation has added a dramatic turn to history, since Mastantuono and Yamal are not only rivals on the pitch, representing the two most emblematic clubs of LaLiga, but now they would also be faced in the personal sphere. According to the reports, Nicki Nicole would have initiated an approach with Mastantuono shortly after his arrival in Spain, which would have triggered a discussion with Yamal and, finally, the breakup.
Despite the intensity of rumors, neither Lamine Yamal, nor Nicki Nicole, nor Franco Mastantuono have issued official statements to confirm or deny these accusations. The lack of pronouncement has left the free land for speculation, which have multiplied on platforms such as Twitter and Instagram. Some users have strongly criticized Nicki Nicole, calling her “botinera” – a term used in Argentina to describe women who are looking for relationships with soccer players – and questioning their commitment to their musical career. Others, however, have defended their right to privacy and have requested respect for unconfirmed speculation.
For his part, Mounir Nasraoui, father of Lamine Yamal, has tried to reduce the matter. In a recent interview, Nasraoui minimized her son’s relationship with the singer, stating: “They are boys. I don’t know who she is, I don’t know her face, I don’t know if they are dating or not. I listen to urban music from the United States.” These statements, far from calming the waters, have added more fuel to the debate, with some users interpreting them as an attempt to uncheck the controversy.
Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal remains focused on her career with FC Barcelona and the Spanish team, where she continues to stand out as one of the greatest promises of world football. Nicki Nicole, on the other hand, has returned to Argentina to celebrate her birthday with her family, according to reports, and has not commented on her personal life. Franco Mastantuono, who has not yet debuted with Real Madrid due to regulations that prevent minor players from training with the first team, has also opted for silence.
The truth is that this loving soap opera has captured the attention of football and entertainment fans alike, feeding the rivalry between Barcelona and Real Madrid outside the playing land. Without concrete evidence that confirms the alleged infidelity, the story remains a rumor that, however, does not stop generating headlines. While those involved are silent, social networks continue to be the main scenario of this narrative, where every gesture, publication or elimination of photos is analyzed thoroughly in search of clues about the true outcome of this love triangle.
