Barcelona teenager Lamine Yamal is rumoured to be facing a major heartbreak, with reports from South America suggesting that his alleged romance with Argentine singer Nicki Nicole has already come to an abrupt end.

Nicole, 25, was said to have started dating Lamine Yamal barely two weeks ago according to a report by All Football. But fresh speculations claim she has already moved on from the Spanish forward, and her new interest is said to be Real Madrid’s 18-year-old sensation Franco Mastantuono.

The timing couldn’t be worse for Yamal. Mastantuono, who joined Real Madrid from River Plate in the summer, plays in a similar attacking role and has already been hyped as one of La Liga’s brightest teenage prospects.

Nicole, whose full name is Nicole Denise Cucco, has over 22 million Instagram followers and nearly 18 million monthly Spotify listeners.

While she has stayed silent on the chatter, she is no stranger to being linked with football stars, having been rumoured to date Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández in 2024.

So far this season, Lamine Yamal has played three times for FC Barcelona in which he scored two goals and provided three assists. As for Mastantuono, he has played three La Liga games for Real Madrid so far this season. He is yet to score for the Spanish giants.
