    BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — Spanish newspaper La Vanguardia says the father of 17-year-old Spain soccer star Lamine Yamal has been hospitalized after being stabbed near Barcelona.

    Citing unnamed official sources, the paper said that Mounir Nasraoui was stabbed multiple times.

    La Vanguardia said Nasraoui was in serious but stable condition.

    Some arrests had been made, according to La Vanguardia, without giving details.

    Local police did not immediately respond to a request late Wednesday from The Associated Press for comment.

    Spain won the European Championship in July with Yamal part of the winning team and setting up Nico Williams’ opening goal in a 2-1 win over England. He also won the tournament’s best young player award just a day after he turned 17.
