Barcelona have designed a detailed two-phase rehab plan to get Lamine Yamal over a nagging pubalgia problem in time for a crucial Champions League meeting with Chelsea, after the winger withdrew from Spain duty and suspended full training. Following radiofrequency treatment on November 10 and intensive work with club physios, Yamal has now rejoined partial group sessions, with Barca targeting seven to ten days of controlled ramp-up, warning him that any rush back could turn an “annoying” groin issue into a long-term absence.

Lamine Yamal said special nights are coming as Barcelona prepare to return to a partially reopened Camp Nou after two seasons at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. The 18 year old, who has barely played there, posted his excitement on social media before the comeback. The stadium, closed for major redevelopment since May 2023, will initially host around 23,000 supporters before a license allows the Lateral Stand to open and increase capacity. Executive Joan Sentelles hopes to reach over 60,000 by the end of 2025 as full sections re open.

Jordi Cruyff revealed that Barcelona delayed Yamal’s debut even after Xavi and senior players quickly recognised his special talent, because the club first needed a secure contract to stop domestic rivals from stealing a teenager they already viewed as an exceptional long-term cornerstone. He said trust with Yamal’s family and La Masia’s plan was vital, with Barcelona postponing his first appearance until protections were signed, then watching him smash age records while veterans and staff privately compared his rare qualities to past icons once his future was tied to Camp Nou.

Spain’s FA said it was “surprised and uncomfortable” to learn Barcelona sent Lamine Yamal for an invasive radiofrequency treatment hours before camp, then notified them late at night recommending 7–10 days’ rest. Spain released him from World Cup qualifying duty. Yamal is managing pubalgia and Barcelona prioritized controlled recovery after recurring groin pain since September. RFEF criticized the lack of prior coordination but emphasized player welfare. Spain face Georgia and Turkey and will call a replacement while the teenager rests per medical advice.

Pain-hit Yamal playing through pubalgia as Barça weigh workload

Lamine Yamal is managing pubalgia, restricting acceleration, changes of direction, and ball-striking. The 18-year-old looked limited in the 2–1 loss at Real Madrid, with discomfort typical of high-intensity fixtures. Club and Spain staff have tightened load management amid concern that pain spikes are curbing the winger’s signature explosiveness during Barcelona’s injury-stretched period. Expect reduced training volume, targeted groin/core strengthening, isometric work, and selective minutes versus direct-duel opponents. Short-term: controlled substitution windows and set-piece involvement without repeated sprints. Medium-term: incremental return to maximal efforts after symptom stabilisation. Risk: chronic aggravation if overused during dense schedules. Tactical hedge: rotate right-sided width and funnel chance creation more centrally.
