The far right party Vox made a target of the Barcelona striker, Lamine Yamal (18 years old), which they also criticized last year.
Due to his Moroccan and equatorial Guinea, Lamine Yamal is “sanctioned” every step by extremist parties in Spain. The most focused on the jewelry of Barcelona seems to be a far right one, Vox, founded in 2013 in Madrid and the third in importance in Spain.
Lamine Yamal, criticized to use Catalan exclusively in public appearances and discussions with journalists
His representatives promptly criticized Lamine's behavior at the age of 18, alluding to the foamy party he gave and to hiring artists with disabilities to entertain the guests. And again, according to the daily L'Equipe, they attacked him because he “uses the Catalan dialect exclusively in discussions with journalists and public outings.”

What would be an affront for the vast majority of the Spaniards, especially since the province of Catalunya, with the capital in Barcelona, forced in 2017 an administrative separation from Spain. The boat was then threatened with an exclusion from La Liga, if such a thing happened.
The extremist Vox party attacked Lamine Yamal and Euro 2024
Lamine Yamal was also the Vox target last summer, at Euro 2024. In the semifinal with France, after a scored goal, the extreme of Barcelona mimicked with the fingers and palms of both hands 3, 0 and 4, signifying the last three digits of the postal code of Rocapondea.
This is the settlement in which Lamine was born and concentrates 24% of the most financially disadvantaged people in the country, and Vox followers hate it, considering it a kind of “Catalan Marsilie”.
Due to the presence of the player with Moroccan father and mother from the equatorial quinea in Spain, they had stated that they would not support the rage of the final tournament in Germany. And they had transmitted them “to be back in Morocco!”.
