Why Is Lamine Yamal Not Playing Tonight for Barcelona vs Real Betis?

FC Barcelona will play their final home game of the season against Real Betis in La Liga. Barcelona are league champions for a second consecutive season after beating Real Madrid last weekend.

The match is the 37th league match for Barcelona, with their final game of the season next week against Valencia away.

Tonight, Barcelona will be without key players in the squad, including Lamine Yamal, who appeared at the league title celebrations last week at the Spotify Camp Nou.

Yamal remains injured and is not part of the Barcelona squad for tonight against Real Betis. Yamal is not the only attacker injured, as Ferran Torres is also missing from the squad due to an injury.

Is Lamine Yamal's Season Over?

Yes, Lamine Yamal will not play for FC Barcelona again this season after suffering a hamstring injury last month.

The injury has ruled him out for the rest of the season, but he is expected to be back in time for the 2026 World Cup for Spain.

Yamal finished the La Liga season with 16 goals and 11 assists in 28 matches. Yamal is currently the joint top goalscorer of the team and the top assister of the team in La Liga.
