Yamal suffered an incurable injury

Lamine Yamal is likely to live with a chronic groin condition, an injury that is said to be incurable and could affect the rest of his career.

Yamal's type of injury is said to be difficult to treat.

Since making his debut for Barca's first team at the age of 15 in August 2023, Yamal has quickly become a phenomenon in world football. In 2024, he contributed greatly to Spain's Euro championship and helped Barca win the domestic treble. At the age of 18, Yamal also finished second in the 2025 Ballon d'Or race, behind only Ousmane Dembele.

However, behind the glory lies a lingering worry. During the recent El Clasico, many people noticed Yamal often grimacing in pain and moving awkwardly - signs of a persistent groin injury. Sources from Sport revealed that the player has pubalgia - a chronic disease that causes pain in the pubic area, is very difficult to treat and almost impossible to completely cure.

"This is not a normal muscle injury, but a disorder in the area where many muscle groups meet. It is impossible to say it will go away in a month or two. The player has to live with it and needs to focus on recovery and compensation exercises to maintain the ability to compete at a high level," explains physiotherapist Lluis Puig.

Renowned sports doctor Dr. Ripoll also warned: "Pubalgia is a very difficult injury to treat. It reduces the player's ability to move and shoot by up to 50% - something that was clearly seen in Yamal in the match against Real Madrid."

According to experts, the cause may be due to Yamal's body developing too quickly during his teenage years, causing his muscles and skeleton to not have time to adapt.

Lionel Messi also had to deal with similar injuries twice between 2000 and 2008. And now, the player considered his "heir" is at risk of facing the same obsession.
