With his father frequently making a presence known and his girlfriend constantly being rumored, can the 18-year-old Yamal still become the new king of Barcelona?

Barcelona, ​​which had smooth sailing in La Liga and the Champions League last season, has performed very average this season. They lost to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, and lost to Real Madrid in the El Clasico. The core of the team, Yamal, has been in constant trouble on and off the court. The teenager who was once considered the new king of Barcelona has also fallen into a trust crisis. Yamal's problem is no longer simply a matter of his personal ability. His family, especially his father, continue to increase his presence on social media. There are also rumors about his girlfriend one after another. He broke up with his girlfriend just two months after the relationship was confirmed. Coupled with the decline in status, the discussion about Yamal's lack of self-discipline has also become the most concerned topic among fans.

There may be some fans who think that how the family behaves and the status of the players cannot be linked, but parents who pursue traffic exposure like Yamal's father are rare even in the entire world of football. Take Mbappe's mother as an example. She also faced her son who became famous at a young age. Her choice was to hide behind Mbappe most of the time and help him deal with a series of off-field problems. However, Yamal's father chose to be exposed in a high-profile manner. Whether it was his live broadcast style, his relationship with his 23-year-old girlfriend, or his complaints about the Golden Globe Awards and Real Madrid, he continued to gain attention on social media.

Discussions about Yamal's father have never stopped on the Internet, and fans have pointed out many times that he is consuming Yamal, but Yamal's father has not changed at all, which has caused many fans to change their perception of Yamal. In addition to family problems, Yamal's rumored girlfriends are also constantly appearing on the front pages of major media. His relationship with the Argentinian female singer brought traffic to the media for 2 months. In addition to this officially announced girlfriend, there are at least 6 other people in Yamal's rumored girlfriend list.

If Yamal can continue to perform well, whether it is his father's behavior to gain traffic or his personal relationship with constant scandals, he will be selectively forgotten by fans. However, Yamal's performance this season did not meet expectations. Last season, he was still the number one young talent in Barcelona and even La Liga. This season, he has performed mediocrely in key battles many times and was restricted by the opponent's full-backs. His speeches before and after the game caused conflicts between the two sides. Especially the game against Real Madrid made Yamal the target of public criticism. Even players within Barcelona had opinions on him.

According to information from the Western media, in addition to the players, Barcelona coach Flick can't stand Yamal's behavior. He believes that the club management is too indulgent to the 18-year-old Mr. 200 million, which has a certain impact on his management. However, the most critical root cause of everything is Yamal's decline in form and the fluctuation of Barcelona's results. His progress this season is not obvious. Without the support of strength, Yamal's behavior will be scrutinized by the media and fans. Instead, finding form as soon as possible is the best way to get out of this predicament.
