"Lamine Yamal's pre-game words did not earn him many supporters in the Spanish capital, and while the player may well have said it quite casually, the Real Madrid dressing room were furious with him. The anger eventually exploded after the game when the likes of Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Jr clashed with the teenage star, with the former even openly gesturing towards Yamal that he talks too much."
"With the FIFA World Cup just around the corner, La Roja unsurprisingly see the need for the Spanish national team squad to be more united than ever. Dani Carvajal and Lamine Yamal clashing, on that front, does not serve them well. Both players are fundamental to Spain's plans on the side of the field and will have to work in tandem if the team is to do well in the global competition. Needless to say, the tussle has left the RFEF offices puzzled as to how to intervene."
"As relayed by Cadena SER in a recent report, however, the administrative body have eventually opted not to intervene in the players' fight as it stands for they do not see it to be serious enough to affect the national team plan. The management and administration consider both Yamal and Carvajal to be top professionals who will not allow club-level conflicts to enter the national team camp."
Lamine Yamal's pre-game remarks provoked anger in the Real Madrid dressing room, culminating in a post-match confrontation involving Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Jr. Carvajal openly gestured that Yamal talks too much, while Frenkie de Jong suggested the matter could have been handled privately. With the World Cup approaching, Spain needs unity and both Yamal and Carvajal are important to tactical plans and must cooperate. The RFEF decided not to intervene, judging the clash insufficiently serious to affect national team preparations and trusting both players to remain professional. Both missed the last Spain squad due to injury.
