Concern in Barcelona Over Yamal as Deco Intervenes to Calm the Crisis with Flick
Friday 17-10-2025
The Spanish newspaper 'AS' revealed that there is concern within FC Barcelona regarding the behaviors of young star Lamine Yamal, in addition to an internal conflict that occurred between German coach Hans Flick and sporting director Deco due to the player's tardiness to a technical meeting.

The newspaper explained that Flick is accustomed to punishing players who are late for training or meetings by preventing them from playing, and he intended to apply this decision to Lamine before the match against Paris Saint-Germain, but Deco intervened to calm the situation and convince the coach to allow the player to participate in the match.

AS added that Flick did not easily accept Deco's intervention, considering that discipline should be applied to all players without exception. It also indicated that there is increasing concern within the club about Yamal's behavior over the past few months, as some officials believe that his lifestyle does not reflect the seriousness required at Barcelona.

The newspaper pointed out that the decision not to punish Yamal surprised some team players, especially since names like Koundé, Raphinha, and Iñaki Peña have previously faced similar penalties for tardiness.
