Lamine Yamal, the 17-year-old prodigy of "Barcelona" and the Spanish national team, has managed to become famous off the field as well. His personal life has also managed to become a sensational news story, all due to his relationship with blogger Alex Padilla, who decided to "profit" from the footballer's name.
Lent.az, citing foreign media, presents information about how his ex-girlfriend asked Yamal for money, but to no avail.
How it all started
After Spain's victory in the 2024 European Championship, where Yamal became the youngest player to score in the tournament, he appeared in public with Alex Padilla. The couple celebrated the victory together, and Padilla, wearing a team jersey with Yamal's name on it, posed with him on the podium.
These moments were captured on camera and quickly spread online, confirming their relationship.
Reasons for the breakup
However, the relationship did not last long. Shortly after their trip to Greece together, a video surfaced online showing Padilla sitting on another boy's lap during a live broadcast. This caused a wave of criticism and suspicions of betrayal. Although she later explained that she was sitting on a stool, no one was interested anymore.
The media added fuel to the fire. According to Spanish tabloids, Padilla was dissatisfied that all of Yamal's assets were registered in his mother's name and that his salary was deposited into her account. Allegedly, this became a point of contention between the couple.
The girl, who is two years older, openly stated that she "did not understand the meaning of such restrictions," and the young footballer firmly replied that "the family decided so and will not change it."
According to rumors, after Padilla broke off the relationship with the footballer and deleted all photos with the girl from social networks and stopped following her, she began sending him angry messages. Because of this, he even had to change his phone number.
Consequences for Padilla
After the breakup, Alex tried to maintain her popularity by playing the role of the footballer's "deceived" girlfriend. However, without Lamine, attention to her decreased.
Some Spanish journalists even write that she is even trying to participate in second-rate shows and still does not hesitate to mention Yamal's name in her posts.
After the "romantic" scandal, Lamine himself is focusing more on his career. The leaders of "Barcelona" praise his extraordinary mental stability and mature approach to life.
At the age of 17, he has already become a key player in the team, and now he is a real example of how even young stars can get rid of toxic relationships in time.
