Barcelona superstar, Lamine Yamal, 18, goes public with Argentinian rapper girlfriend, 25

Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal has officially gone public with his new relationship, introducing fans to his girlfriend, Argentine singer Nicki Nicole, through a heartfelt post on Instagram.

The 18-year-old forward, who has quickly become one of the brightest rising stars in European football, shared a tender photo of himself alongside Nicole in celebration of her 25th birthday. The image, which captured the pair in an affectionate moment, immediately sent social media buzzing, with fans flooding the comments to congratulate the couple.

Yamal’s post came just hours after his standout performance for Barcelona, where he played a key role in their thrilling 3–2 comeback victory against Levante on Saturday evening. The young star’s decision to share his private life at this time highlights both his confidence on the pitch and his growing comfort in the spotlight off it.

Nicki Nicole, one of Argentina’s most prominent young music stars, has been in the headlines before due to her high-profile relationship with Mexican singer Peso Pluma. The two parted ways last year after a very public breakup, sparked by allegations that Pluma had been seen with another woman during a trip to Las Vegas.

Now, with her romance with Yamal becoming public, both stars appear ready to turn the page and embrace a fresh chapter in their personal lives.

The pairing of one of football’s most exciting young talents and one of Latin music’s leading voices has quickly become a talking point among fans worldwide, uniting two massive fan bases across sport and music.
