Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal has vowed to eat Marc Cucurella alive when his club faces Real Madrid next season. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
Issuing a playful yet firm warning about what awaits in El Clásico, Yamal revealed that he has already been engaging in some friendly trash-talk with the former Chelsea defender.
Lamine, however, added that he has not spoken to Dani Carvajal since their public spat during the 2025-26 campaign.
His words, “I told him he’s going to start the first game and be a substitute in the second because I’m going to eat him alive!”
On Carvajal, “No, it’s football. In the end, they celebrated the match and lost at our ground. I haven’t spoken to Carvajal since, and I don’t speak to anyone from Real Madrid.”
Futbol Club Barcelona is a professional football club based in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, that competes in La Liga, the top flight of Spanish football.
Founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss, Catalan, German, and English footballers led by Joan Gamper, the club has become a symbol of Catalan culture and Catalanism, hence the motto “Més que un club” (“More than a club”). Unlike many other football clubs, the supporters own and operate Barcelona. It is the third-most valuable sports team in the world, worth $5.51 billion, and the world’s fourth richest football club in terms of revenue, with an annual turnover of €582.1 million.
The official Barcelona anthem is the “Cant del Barça”, written by Jaume Picas and Josep Maria Espinàs. Barcelona traditionally play in dark shades of blue and garnet stripes, hence nicknamed Blaugrana.
In March 2021, Lionel Messi overtook Xavi’s record of 767 games played for the club, and presently has made 778 official appearances in all competitions, while also holding the record for the most appearances in La Liga matches for Barcelona, with 520.
