Barcelona's Concern: Yamal's Ankle Pain Resurfaces
Lamine Yamal experienced a recurrence of right ankle pain during Barcelona's match against Leganés, causing concern among fans and teammates.
Lamine Yamal alarmed Barcelona supporters during the first half of the match against Leganés as he was seen limping, indicating discomfort in his right ankle—the same area that had previously sidelined him before the November international break.
The incident occurred in the 18th minute when a Leganés player made contact with Yamal's right ankle, causing it to twist completely. This is the same ankle that had kept him out of action for a short period recently.
After receiving medical attention on the field, including a pain-relieving spray, Yamal continued to play, though he was visibly in pain and limping. His teammates, notably Ferran Torres, expressed concern, engaging with him as they headed to the locker room at halftime. Despite the discomfort, Yamal returned to the pitch in the second half, striving to help his team overcome the deficit.
