Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has delivered an update on his relationship status after being spotted on holiday with a model 13 years his senior.
During the 24/25 season, Yamal made headlines after producing a series of impressive performances.
In total, the 17-year-old provided 18 goals and 25 assists across all competitions for Barcelona.
As a result, the Spanish international is firmly in the running to win the Ballon d’Or award.
Recently, during the off-season, Yamal made headlines again as he was spotted on holiday with an OnlyFans model 13 years his senior.
Images of the two on a jet-ski went viral, while both posted similar pictures from the same location in Italy – appearing to go on a boat trip, fly in a helicopter and spend time around the pool.
Fans were quick to put two and two together, and rumours of the pair being in a relationship spread extremely quickly.
On Sunday evening, the Barcelona youngster took to social media and appeared to deliver an update on his relationship status.
Posting a series of pictures from a recent trip to Brazil, where he was joined by Neymar, Yamal wrote in the caption: “Single and happy, this is Brazil!!!”

The model in question, Fati Vazquez, issued her own statement after facing backlash last week.
She said: “I’m getting slammed, and it feels unfair. First of all, I’m 29, I haven’t even turned 30 yet. I haven’t done anything wrong; I haven’t hurt anyone.
“This is affecting my family deeply, and honestly, I don’t want it to escalate further. We’re talking about death threats, being called a pedophile, insults… it’s already way too much.”
Vazquez added: “When it’s an older man, no-one says a word… But when it’s a woman with a young guy, suddenly it’s a problem!
“I just spent a few days with Lamine, which is exactly what’s shown in the photos. And that’s it. I’m not going to say anything more, nor do I want to blow it up or make it into a scandal, because to me, it’s completely unnecessary.”
