Barcelona midfielder opens up on injuries, registration issues and defends Lamine Yamal - 'Situation was not pleasant' | Barca Universal

"Lamine Yamal always wants to be here. If he hasn't been able to be here, it's because he's not 100%. In the end, Lamine's willingness to be here is called into question, but behind closed doors, it's quite the opposite. The relationship between Barça and the RFEF? There's no problem. Everyone wants him to be 100%. He's used to people talking about him."

"It's not pleasant to have your name associated with so many injuries. In the end, I'm following a method of work to prevent these situations. I believe 100% that it's good for me. It's football, and you can't control everything. I want to train more on the field and in the gym for prevention. It's about finding a balance of what works."

"Last year's situation was not pleasant, but I had complete confidence in the club; it was not up to me."

Dani Olmo addressed Lamine Yamal's withdrawal from the Spain squad, asserting that Yamal always wants to be present and that absences reflect not being 100% fit. Olmo said doubts about Yamal's willingness are misplaced and that Barcelona and the RFEF have no problem, with everyone wanting Yamal fully recovered. Olmo described his own injury struggles and outlined a preventive training method combining more field and gym work to avoid setbacks while seeking balance. He recalled last season's difficult registration saga, said he had complete confidence in the club, and remained ambitious and focused.
