Barcelona teenage wonderkid Lamine Yamal and a flight attendant 12 years his senior reportedly ‘don’t want to put a label on their close relationship’ after being seen on holiday together in Italy.
Photos were published of Yamal, 17, on holiday with Spanish flight attendant and social media influencer Fati Vazquez, who is 29 years old.
Spanish magazine Lecturas published images of the pair on a jet ski together on the island of Pantelleria in the south of Sicily.
It followed Yamal and Vazquez posting photos from the same location in recent days, with the pair enjoying a life of luxury that has included going on a boat trip, relaxing by a pool and flying in a helicopter.
Lecturas wrote that the pair ‘don’t want to put a name to their obvious friendship’, but said they ‘get along perfectly’.
‘Their closeness is such that they didn’t hesitate to go on vacation at a key moment. They wanted to get away from it all and celebrate the season’s many successes.;
The report claimed there is a ‘clear connection between them’ and ‘the age difference is not an obstacle to their understanding’.
Yamal, however, has denied that they are a couple after speaking with gossip expert Javi de Hoyos.
De Hoyos claims ‘he’s been able to speak to Lamine Yamal, and he categorically denies that he’s with her; he says they have nothing going on.’
‘Lamine didn’t go to this vacation spot alone, but with other Barça teammates,’ De Hoyos added.
Having revealed that Yamal is not in a relationship with Vazquez, De Hoyos suggested that the influencer could instead be interested in another Barcelona player.
‘Probably, Fati does have something going on with someone at Barca or is a friend of another teammate,’ he said.
Vazquez has also spoken out about the backlash she has received, while stating she is 29 years old, after initially being reported as 30.
The influencer said that she has received death threats following the photos of her with Yamal, while stating they are ‘two people who want to have a good time’.
‘I’m getting really p****d off, people are even wishing me dead because of it,’ Vazquez told Spanish television show La familia de la tele.
‘I’m receiving death threats and messages calling me a paedophile.
‘First, I’m 29, I haven’t made it to the thirties yet. I haven’t done anything, haven’t killed anyone. The reactions are just too heavy and it’s even affecting him [Lamine].
‘I don’t want to say anything more or make a big deal out of it or make it morbid, because I think it’s completely unnecessary.
‘We’re just two people who want to have a good time, and that’s it.’
Vazquez shared another post on Instagram, responding to critics, of her in a swimming pool in Italy, with the caption ‘Imagine talking bad about me and I’m over here like this.’
She added: ‘It’s sad to see how some people carry so much darkness inside that they get to wish death on someone they don’t even know.’
‘What others project speaks more about them than me. I choose to live with purpose, continue to grow and surround myself with light. To those who wish me evil, I wish them healing, because no one who is well with himself wishes to destroy another.’
Vazquez started her career as a flight attendant but has since moved on from being a crew member to focus on social media.
She has over one million followers across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and OnlyFans, where she regularly posts about her fitness regime and healthy eating.
Vazquez has also written a book about the bullying she experienced during her teenage years.
Meanwhile, Yamal appears to still be single for now. He went public with his TikTok influencer girlfriend Alex Padilla last July after she cheered him on to Euros glory in Germany.
However, he unfollowed Padilla later that month after a video of her sitting on another boy’s lap went viral on social media.
Yamal was then spotted with another TikTok star, Anna Gegnoso, in December as they went shopping together in Barcelona amid reports they had started dating.
But it is understood that they are not in a relationship currently.
Yamal posted a photo of himself at the airport ahead of a planned trip to Brazil on Monday, where he is expected to meet one of his childhood heroes, Neymar, after previously mentioning his intention to do so in multiple interviews.
The teenager has been having some well-earned downtime after his Spain side were beaten on penalties by Portugal in the Nations League final earlier this month.
