Overview

• Barcelona said Yamal’s pubic discomfort resurfaced after the midweek loss to Paris Saint‑Germain, ruling him out of Sunday’s game at Sevilla and setting a recovery estimate of two to three weeks.
• The RFEF confirmed Yamal’s removal from Luis de la Fuente’s squad for qualifiers against Georgia and Bulgaria after receiving Barcelona’s medical information following the squad announcement.
• The latest setback follows a September aggravation on international duty that cost Yamal four Barcelona matches before brief returns versus Real Sociedad and a 90‑minute outing against PSG.
• His absence covers Spain’s October window and likely sidelines him for Barcelona’s next fixtures, with his availability for the October 26 Clásico against Real Madrid uncertain.
• Public friction persists between Barça coach Hansi Flick and Spain’s de la Fuente over player care, as sporting director Deco says he has engaged RFEF counterparts to improve communication.
