Barcelona's Plan to Assist Yamal During Ramadan
Saturday 21-02-2026
Barcelona is preparing to face a significant physical challenge for the young star of the team, Lamine Yamal, during the month of Ramadan. The team will play four matches in the Spanish League at the critical time of 5:15 PM, which means playing matches during the most challenging fasting period before the Maghrib call to prayer.

The challenge lies in the player's ability to deliver optimal performance during warm-ups and intense matches without water or food, which increases the risk of fatigue, muscle cramps, and fiber injuries, especially for a winger who relies on speed and continuous sprints.

Coach Hans Flick stated before the Levante match: "We have a clear plan, we monitor what the player needs, when he should eat, and when he should train. The club provides him with all the necessary facilities to adhere to fasting while maintaining physical performance, by distributing meals during nighttime hours and focusing on deep hydration before dawn."

The club relies on coordination between the medical and technical staff to ensure Lamine Yamal can deliver his best in the upcoming four matches, while maintaining his health and ability to make a difference in the Spanish League.
