Overview

  • Street artist TVBoy unveiled a “Super Lamine” mural in Barcelona’s Gracia neighborhood depicting Yamal in a Superman-inspired suit with an “L” emblem and the motto “When the will is strong, obstacles are small.”
  • Yamal began his coming-of-age celebration with a private family dinner at La Cúpula Garraf featuring gold balloons, a giant “18” installation and a four-tier Dragon Ball–themed cake.
  • He showcased his soaring market value by wearing a custom $400,000 gold and diamond “LY” chain crafted by Tajia Diamonds, as highlighted by rapper El Alfa.
  • Later that night, over 200 guests—including FC Barcelona and Spain internationals plus artists Quevedo, Ozuna and Bad Gyal—attended a phone-free party secured by club security.
  • The mural’s motto underscores Yamal’s role as a symbol of a more inclusive Spain and amplifies his anti-racism message beyond the football pitch.
